Re: Side Cramps?? Anybody?

[Guest guest]

Gonna get yelled at or told nonsense but i started going to my chiropractor

again. I was having bad bad cramps that were increasing in frequency in my

left calf thought it was just from my limp. I walk pretty funny. My

Neurosurgeon said it wasn't from any of my tumors suggested more fluids. But

after the chiropractor adjustment me the cramps went away walking got easier

and headaches eased. Hip pain went away as well as neck pain. Not that pain

from tumor growth but like a kink in your neck sorta feeling. I do not

suggest going to one after a recent surgery or without asking your dr first

and when you do you must tell them of all surgeries and tumors it is very

important. I have wentto him since I was teeny but stop for awhile here and

there reasons stated above.

Sara

For awhile, and I find it odd, when I turn my torso,(left or right) I

get cramps in my side. I also have pains under my breasts in my rib

cage...anybody else have this oddity? and could it be caused from muscle

degeneration? Any help would be appreciated! >>

Carol,

YES! I get cramps in my mid-section very frequently,

especially after I yawn or stretch. It hits either or

both sides of the ribs. Sometimes it is very painful.

I also get crapms in my calves more than usual. I

have asked my doctor about them, but he doesn't have

an explanation.

Mranie,

Is it possible that muscle relaxants would help those cramps? The pain must

be too much. Vicki

Hi Carol !

I have had cramps under my ribs, right side only. Been do it on and off for

years, more so if I'm working in some very confined space. Doc put it down

to a tumour somwhere.

Also get cramps in one foot but I've busted a few toes and sprained ankle,

so hard to be sure whats the cause, But I do suspect somethings doing weird

things inside. Maybe I'm just getting old....

Falling apart Down under !! Marcus

The only medication that works for me to date is the Quinine. It is a

muscle relaxer of the worse kind. Because of my bad heart is very

dangerous for me to take!

pain)

I have NO idea what causes mine. I think being out of

shape is a large part of it, for me. Not enough

oxygen getting to the muscles. I need to lose some

weight and get some endurance back, and see if the

cramps go away!

Ya know, I heard that cramps are from a lack of potassium. I got way bad

cramps when I started the chemo, but I really boosted the banana intake:)

My cramps are gone. These were in my legs and sides, very painful!!
