Are you diabetic by any chance ? I remember one of my symptoms before being diagnosed with diabetes was leg / foot/ toe cramps. They hurt like nuts !! I also get them every here and there now a days when i wear heels. Since i normally wear sneakers all the time.... when i wear heels , i certainly pay for it .

Hmmm....these are very interesting! hehe. I will have to ask my doc I guess, not that I dont trust you guys! I am very thankful for all of your advice, but as we know CFers tend to be different! hmmm....lol...interesting thought! haha. And I dont like to take anthing without consulting him, but now I have this info, and I can go to him and say it could be this or that. I am educating myself.
Imortalgoddezz...Thank you so much for the websit, I will check it out. I have checked out other sites and they mainly said potassium or calcium or too much time on your feet. I have never heard magnesium tho...so I will have to consult.
Spicyone...I dont believe I breathe that fast...I dont know though, I get out of breath easy, but I dont know if you would say that is the same thing...hmmm.
Diane...You had that as a sign of CFRD? I have never heard of that, I am not diabetic yet, but have had other various symptoms. I mentioned my symptoms to my doc and he just kinda brushed it off...Im curious, what other symptoms did you have of CFRD? I have been thirtsy, but not wicked thirsty...havent lost weight...been peeing a lot, but is that b/c of the drinking (?)...no drop in PFTs or anything like that...so im confuzzled....if you couldnt tell.

It is a lack of magnesium which causes it, and a banana is chock-full of magnesium if I recall.
Another thing that may help is taking Quinine. I also had the same problem, and my sister (a P.A.) had recommended that for me. Worth trying.
I still get cramps on occasion, and can't figure out where I put my Quinine bottle! Anyway, banana's work for me, and I sometime even have cravings for "Peanut Butter and banana Sandwiches"--I heard it was one of Elvis' favorites!!! Heard he'd even hop on his private Leer to Georgia for some fresh Peanut Butter!!

as everybody else has said - Magnesium, Potassium, Sodium.....in no particular order, all linked somehow, lack of any/all of them can cause cramps.
Although I quite like bree's response, your leg COULD be falling off you know, WAY more interesting than boring old mineral deficiencies *yawn*, please can we have something original happening on these boards <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">
PS if the leg Bree is sending you is too short, let me know, I have a super long chicken looking leg I can send you instead, i don't use mine anymore, constantly sitting on my butt.
