Do you drink a good amount of water and add electrolytes? That may help reduce cramping. It is recommended to have at least 50% of your weight in ounces of water (example, if 140 pounds, have a minimum of 70 ounces of water with electrolytes). My son and I use LMNT brand powder electrolytes. My son has a heart defect, POTS and raynauds. I have spine issues and neuropathy (small fibers). I also take alpha Lipoic acid and Acetyl l carnitine supplements which helps my neuropathy symptoms.

Have you ever had your lumbar spine checked for spinal canal/nerve root compression that could be behind your cramping and pain symptoms?

Thank you for the response. I been looking into electrolytes, will look into your recommendation. I do take NAC,ALA and L carnitine,so far difficult to assess. Have spinal issues like stenosis etc will check further.I live in a rural area,not to happy with my neurologist.
