what thyroid ed sre you on and how much?

Gracia

Hi all,

I'm having trouble with muscle cramping. Dr. has been watching my

potassium and I'm getting plenty, so I know that's not the issue.

I desperately need exercise and can go less than a hundred yards

before my hips begin cramping and the pain stops my intended

exercise.

Does anyone know of any auto immunes that would cause muscle

problems? I've already been diagnosed with 4 and I'm beginning to

wonder if this isn't an issue.

Thanks,

I had that problem too, but when I took vitamins and added magnesium and my

dosage was at the correct amount the cramps went away.

Magnesium absolutely works. My wife and I ride bicycles near

Seattle. It is very hilly here. We would wind up with horrendous

cramps and muscle spasms. I mean the kind where your leg

tries to get up and walk away with out you, and it feels like it

might just succeed. We use a powdered instant magnesium

preparation (ionic fizz) and it works great for cramp relief and

rescue.

Which auto-immune diseases do you have?

Dehydration or one of several nasty diseases can cause this, but most

likely it is just a lack of either calcium or magnesium.

How much mag do you take daily?

I take it at night to aid with sleep/relaxation....but I also get the

cramping and I thought it was Vitamin D def.

What are you doing about the metabolic syndrome aka reaven's syndrome?

As far as the leg cramps goes; dehydration; low calcium or low magnesium

levels. Taking calcium supplements and magnesium supplements can help with

the cramp and making sure you are hydrated.

I take 700 mg of magnesium daily which helps my leg cramps from lupus and

fibro.

You are most likely short on calcium.

You might want to try adding " calcium citrate " to your daily intake, perhaps

three or four tablets a day, split up however you want.

Also, a two gram a day consumption of Vitamin C might be good, and 1200 IU

Vitamin D is a possibility.

Of course, your medical provider should have told you these things, so

follow his/ger advice.

Hi Nancie,

Dr. hasn't addressed the Reaven's specifically, been too busy getting

my T hormones in line. I am checking my HA1C to make sure my blood

sugars don't go bonkers. So far they've been under 7 by my cutting

out the amylose.

Transdermal magnesium has been suggested, and I'm going to research

that and give it a try. Can't hurt for sure.
