Muscle spasms...

[kimtoomey 1]

I am 1 week out tomorrow from surgery. The past two days I have been having muscle spasms mainly in my legs. It is a quick jolt--almost like a wave and then nothing. Anyone know what I mean or how to make it stop?

I would contact your doctor. When I get that I take Magnesium. But check with the doctor first.

Im on the preop diet and have been experiencing the same thing! I told my husband my stomach is fine but I think my legs are hungry! It kept me up last night well between that and having to pee every 2 hours from all the Water Ive been drinking!

What could be causing this HORRIBLE ITCHING?! I know it means you're healing. But this is crazy! It kept me up most of night even with benadryl!

Magnesium as well for itching. I recommend Calm Magnesium and taking Epsom Salt baths (if you're far enough out from surgery to take a bath). I just had a horrible spell of itching and after doing a lot of research added the magnesium and within two days I saw a huge improvement.

Calm magnesium comes in a powder that you mix with Water. It also helps with BMs if you're stopped up.

Sometimes the leg cramps are a result of being a little dehydrated. I get them when I drink less than 64 oz. of Water. I also take a magnesium supplement, but it's a powder that I mix with still more water. However, it's always a good idea to see your doctor. Each person is a little different.
