Anyone have trouble with cramping?

I have been having a lot more trouble with cramps than before my surgery. Anyone else have this problem?

Depends on the type of cramping, female type or muscle cramps?

Average muscle cramps can be a sign of a diet deficiency of not enough potassium, magnesium or Calcium. It can also be signs of dehydration too.

Are you taking a daily Multivitamin that has Calcium magnesium or potassium?

Are you getting in enough Water each day? You should aim to drink enough fluids that your urine is light yellow to almost clear in color.

Yep to both, lol.

I am prone to having cramps in my feet if I point my toes, ONLY if I point my toes though.Its a bit weird. I've never had leg or feet cramps before aside from my first pregnancy.

I get muscle cramps really bad if Ii stop taking my magnesium & Calcium supliments (its a all in one pill of magnesium, calcuim & zinc).

Used to I would just eat a bannana when I got them and that would do the trick but now that I am trying to seriously stick to my diabetic diet no bannanas allowed now =/

I rarely get them in the feet or legs mine usually happen around my waist especially on the sides. And will last for hours.

I dunno if it would help with female type crampig as that is seperate thing but I dont have those cramps as bad as I used to but also take a Iron supliment each month durring my TOM which seems to do me the most good.
