I am 84 and have neuropathy after chemo treatments. I was wondering if you suffer also from leg cramps or muscle cramps when you stretch. I do and while I am not taking that many meds now, I sure wish I could latch on to something that will help these awful leg/muscle cramps that wake me up in the middle of the night.

I am 86 and have had peripheral neuropathy in my legs for some time. I don't know the cause, but I suspect it was because of IMRT for prostate cancer. I take Lyrics (generic) for it, and it is manageable.

I get the cramps too. I keep a product called Theraworx by my bed. It is a foam which I spread on my leg and the pain disappears. You can get it at any drugstore.

Yes I get the same thing when I stretch my legs and at night. Vary painful.
