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 😀

Alot of knee joint pain, difficult to do stairs without help. Causes balance issues when walking.
Yeah. I get muscle cramps in my legs and feet.
Yes, muscles ache, joints hurt at times, especially if I have had to be on my feet, walking, even minimally the day before.
Is there any part of your day that is routine and requires you to be on your feet? Or do you engage in spontaneous activities often that can make you feel the effects after? Have you discovered anything that helps alleviate these uncomfortable sensations?
