Hi Ann finally found you. I'm also having intense leg cramps in calf and burning across ankle mostly on right side ( hip replaced side) I can feel it coming on and run for an ice pack. When that didn't work reached for heating pad . The pain is so intense can't put foot down that all I can do is cry and try to walk it off. Then saw neuro Rx for gabapentin after taking 1200 mg in added increments started feeling crazed and off balance. So off all drugs. Sticking to quinine water, magnesium and potassium hoping that will work. I also take Hylands leg cramp homeopathic bought on Amazon (of course) also can buy in drugstore. A few under tongue at night. Does it work? Eh Seeing neuro tomorrow for more help with the legs, keep thinking it could be a nerve hitting somewhere. I stretch on a foam roller everyday to stretch back, and now doing pelvic tilts for posture issues. Also started using weights again for shoulders, but each time lift left arm hear the grinding of bone on bone!! Dreading thought of another surgery. Also using lidocaine patches in shoulders. Can use for up to 12 hrs a day.
And the saga continues....,,.,
