Does anyone suffer more frequent cramp in the tops and bottoms of feet?.....lack of salt, potassium, magnesium perhaps?

Oh, do I ever....it's like the muscles I between the bones are cramping up. So painful. Hubby has to dig his fingers into the tops of my feet to help. I think I get enough salt and make sure I drink enough so I don't know what it is.

Hi Yes most of the time really painful I even get it in my hands too the only thing that relieves it is if I drink or eat something that is quite salty althogh I crave salt and its affecting my kidney function blood tests if I stop the salt the cramps come back docs are still looking into why x

Ouchie you could ask your doc to give you a blood test to se if your lacking in something like magnesium, Calcium & sodium I had these done but they came back clear x
