Guest guest Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 I seen where some members are having problems with cramps of legs or hands. I also had cramps of my legs that made me walk and walk and rub them. It was painful and there were times when my hands would cramp up and draw up like a " claw " . My doctor sent me for a EEG to test my nerves in my legs and hands. They found that I did have some weakness and per the doctor it is very common for people with liver diease to have this problem. I was started on " Lyrcia " and I have not had anymore problems with my legs or hands. I love this med. I only take the lowest dosage of it. Just FYI what helped me.
