Muscle Cramps

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

For the last twelve or so months, Brad has been suffering from terrible

cramps in his thighs and calves. They don't happen often, only once

every month or two but they are so severe that he screams and has even

cried. Brad is one tough bloke so to see him in such agony is very

disturbing, the pain expressed in his face is awful. The only thing I

have been able to do to help is get him hot wheat packs then stand back

and watch and be sympathetic.

I have bought him herbal medications in the past at his request but

then he changes his mind and won't take them because he is worried

about their intereactions with the Salofalk, Imuran and Urso which is

something he really needs to bring up with his doc next month but in

the meantime, can anyone tell me if this is common with PSC or the

later stages of it and does anyone know of any solutions to the

problem, whether it be exercises, medications etc?

Thanks
