    Leg cramps

    Start with CVS, Wal-Mart and the Vitamin Shoppe. Sure there should be some stocked there. If all else fails try EBay or Amazon, they have most everything there and are happy to ship it to you!

    Leg cramps

    Yeah I think so, I was on 1000, 500 twice a day before my surgery and they never took it away for me, took away my Vitamins A and D, but I don't remember anything else except if PCP,or ortho tried to perceive steroids, tell them no Thank You, it impedes healing.

    Psychological roller coaster

    Well you do have us, you can vent to us, because even if you feel in your ❤you are the only one to feel this way, we all at sometime had our own " swampy" moments, where all you can see is Dismal Swamp all around you. We did get better and I am sure you will too. Its a little like producing a baby. They hand you this small human, well the hospital SAID it was human, floppy, small as a loaf of bread, a loud noise at one end , no sense of responsibility at the other, and they tell you just to feed it well and raise it to maturity, but seldom do they give you an Owners Manual. And you return home, a little sore in the belly, a little light-headed, a little WTF did I have done to ME? But it gets better, you heal, you come to terms with what these new innards can do, and gradually you will reach your New Norm. Th8s is a Promise!

    Leg cramps

    How is your Magnesium levels? Almost every time I have had bad ones, and I have skinned my toes , dragging myself across the floor, to try to pull myself up on a strong chair with my arm muscles. Bad scene, of course nobody else woke up or offered to drive me to the ER. Is this the type of thing you bother the Rescue Sqaud with? You do hate to be labled as " little old lady, fallen and can't get up". Most of mine were pre-surgery , at that time 500 mg Magnesium Oxide, painkiller- usually 4 aspirin unless I could locate my tramadol, wrap up in a blanket, once my legs got warmer, and the meds kicked in, I cried like an inconsolable infant. Don't know what I am doing right, but surgery 4 months ago today and it hasn't flared up again. Could also be potassium levels off, if so, eat a 🍌 as a quick fix. Sometimes Flexaril helped, but not always. Bottom line, your electrolytes may be slightly wacky with the pre- diet, try propel or gatorade, probably the zero form. I know I am throwing a lot of things out, but maybe something will work for you.
  17. Well I have a puckish sense of humor. For me if they pressured me, my answer would be "labial reduction "surgery or if I were male " a hair transplant on my scrotum", stun them, shut them up , turn on your heel and leave their mouths gaping open . They don't pay your bills for you, why should they be allowed to live your life for you? None yer Bees-wax, Nosy Parker!
