[|Human|] I m a 56 year old man, in poor health with type II Diabetes, Hi BP. Severe depression & take about 10 or 12 different meds, I just had an attack of cramps that started in my left leg & then moved to my right, the pain intensity was like nothing I have ever experience in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it lasted about 10 min. I took 500 mg of niacin, I chewed up a valium & swallowed another one whole, I drank about 30 oz of water with 1/2 tsp of salt I chewed up 2 325 mg timed relies aspirin & took another whole one. I kept my legs moving while standing & holding onto a counter & the pain passed about 5 more min after taking the above pills. I still have residual pain in my groin while sitting here at the computer, about 10% of what it was at it s worst. I may of been a little dehydrated. Any idea what the hell just happened to me? Gary
[|AI|]  Your leg cramps might have been due to serum electrolyte level abnormality. The patients who have high BP usually remains on low salt diets that may cause disturbance in blood electrolyte levels and cause sudden sever leg cramps which relieved with taking salts with water. To avoid these symptoms again take ample water and balanced salt diet. And tab. Carnitine may help to reduce these symptoms again.
