Hi all,
I’m the one that had “super high” cholesterol (according to my doctor) a couple of months back. I went right back onto Keto as per the support of a number of people in this wonderful group - and am back on track to losing 25 lbs. I have lost 17.8 lbs since January, and have 6.8 lbs to go to get to 130 (I am an athletic - 56 year old big boned person).
Last night, I had such a bad cramp in my calf and a muscle on the outside of my lower leg, that when I went to get out of bed to stretch it out, I collapsed and couldn’t get up. Unfortunately, my chest slambed into the bedside table and my butt hit the metal support frames of the bed incredibly hard. I had to take pain killers for the bruising.
I have been taking Magnesium (Jamieson 500 mg + D3 (500 IU) for months at bedtime. I have also been taking Potassium (100 mg - timed release GNC) for about a month. Things appears to be getting better in the lower leg cramp department - but truth be told - I was on the age every night…I like to stretch out lake a cat in the morning hours…and that’s when these cramps want to set in. Recently, I started taking Glucosamine/ NEM (Weber Naturals (750/250mg) twice a day for joint pain in my hands.
Does anyone have any ideas at all?
