HELP!!! Terrible leg muscle cramping :(

[Guest guest]

Hello RA friends...

I am wondering if any of you have tips or information on leg cramping. My

husband (42) was dx at age 29 with RA. Lately he has been getting such terrible

leg cramps that wake him up and the pain is horrible. He does take the calcium,

mag, folic acid, mtx, prednisone, a host if vitamins, the injection Simponii,

(pain pills: vicodin, kadian), gee...I cant even name them all. He just had a

cortisone shot in his elbow n wrist because they actually LOCK up...his elbow

was locked in a 45’ last week.

Anyway----do any of you get these and if so, can you offer ideas on what helps.

It wakes him from a sleep! The cramping can be in the calves, inner thigh area,

feet.....

Thanks for any information you can share.
