Muscle Weakness and Cramps

Posted by niki012 @niki012, 2 days ago

Ive had muscle cramps on and off since december 2025 if i exercise my feet are on fire and my legs are weak i then cant move for 2 days after. Vitamin D levels were tragically low so i got a high dosage from docs. Bloods now clear and mri clear. No more tests to do. Help

Are you on a cholesterol medication? Some of the medication’s for that will cause pain and weak muscles.

there are more tests to be done. Also, try suppliments like K, magnesium, B12 and Iron. I get spasms and nerve issues in my legs and feet when I am anemic - even if the tests are within range - they are not at midline normal.

Have you checked for chronic venous insufficiency.

@niki012 I take HEME iron + B vitamins. It resolves a ton of my issues.

I take vitamin code for women over 50 or their raw one and I think the brand is HEME soft gel heme iron poly peptide with vitamin C and folic acid. Neither of these impacts my digestion or motility. If it helps,send me a message. It’s always nice to know!
