leg cramps

[lindapinda]

although i have occasionally suffered from leg and feet cramps since the 80,s,in the last 3 years the problem has got much worse.Could this be a menopause thing,as the timing would coincide?

Yes, I have started to get leg cramp since entering menopause

So have I , I thought it was to do with me smoking heavily and so having poor circulation, glad to hear that it may not be.
By the way I am trying to become a non smoker and today is day 14 without a cigarette.

Thanks girls! It helps to know there's other sufferers out there! I used to smoke a little and found that if i had too many,it gave me terrible leg cramps the next day.Thats another good reason to keep off the dreaded weed!
