Leg & Arm Cramps 3 weeks Post Op
I had a TAH on Sept 15th and for the past 2 weeks, I've had cramping in my left arm and leg... It feels like the leg cramps I used to have when I was pregnant & didn't get enough potassium. My dr checked my potassium, calcium, electrolytes... everything she could think of... they are worse at night, but the past 2 days, I've had them during the day as well. I'm eating bananas & drinking Gatorade. Anyone else every experience anything like this?? Any suggestions... I am taking Estradiol 2 mg for HRT. Thanks!!

Are you on any HRT? They changed the dosage of my HRT & the cramping went away...

No, I am not. I am 48 years old. The doctor said I am menopausal and don't need HRT.
