Leg and Foot Cramping and Pain
Many individuals with Myasthenia gravis report having intensive leg/foot cramps and pain, most specifying this occurring predominately at night.
Do you experience leg pain? Describe the sensation, and if you note the treatments you are on, that would be great. Pyridostigmine is associated with cramping. But from personal experience, I believed this to cause my leg pain until I stopped mestinon, which has continued. I am sure many of you are the same way.
I look forward to seeing any trends we may note with our community here and our lower body cramps experiences.
Feel free to share any advice you have found for relief 😀

Yes severe at times currently having muscle spasms especially at night
Yes I had very bad pain when I had again fallen and tore my hamstring and ruptures of the muscles to the Bone I was in a lot of pain from that. I had surgery to repair those and I was still in lots of pain for at least 6 weeks after that.
weakness only
I have been having lower leg and foot cramping for about 2 weeks now. I started celcept about 1 week ago and joined a gym when this started. I also take Pyridostigmine. I take a multivitamin to make sure I am getting potassium. I have also been working in the heat a good bit so there are many possibilities here. Also I am thinking it is more than one thing causing it.
