Mmc4263 by toxicity I was referring that I was on so many meds that my liver and kidney function had changed. This is based on being on meds for 20 plus years. I decided to detox from meds to give my body a chance to feel better through exercise, nutrition, rest, and yoga. I do feel better and now have gone to drinking natural coconut water to help with cramping and so far has help some

I to get cramps in my legs and feet when I do yoga. I usually have to stop and work it out, loosen my leg and shake it. I get it other times but not as bad. My daughter doesn't have MS, but she gets leg cramps, and she believes the coconut water helps her.

I'm so sorry you have so much cramping. I have cramping in my toes, feet, and legs. I know they can be very painful. They can be like a charlie horse on steroids. The only thing I have found that helps at all is to soak the area in hot water. Maybe you should try it and see if it helps you too :) Hugs!

I get cramps down my shin, in first 2 toes, in my hips, my abdomen and in my forearms. I take 30mg of Baclofen, 3x daily. I know it helps, b/c when I miss a dose they are worse. Also, water, sodium (in appropriate amounts) and doing the stretches the physical therapist set up for me are helpful.
