Hi ! I'm a 40 yr-old male - when I was in my early 20's I suffered a bit with cramp attacks in my calves during the night - if anyone has ever experienced this they will know it is very painful - the muscles in your calf screw up into a tight ball and hurt like hell.

I have suddenly started having these attacks once again - sometimes I wak up in bed and get the odd "twinge" in my leg, and I daren't go back to sleep for fear of moving in my sleep and setting if off, thus having to endure more pain.

Sounds crazy but it's bloody awful - so..............before I see my Doctor, does anyone know of any good remedies for cramp....maybe some herbal stuff or something you can buy over the counter without a prescription ?

Thanks !

I have been taking 300mg of Wellbutrin for a few years and have decided to stop taking it since I ran out of my mail order supply. It's been about 2 weeks, and so far, I think i'm doing well, but I have had some shoulder pain, and numbness in my right hand.

Thank you in advnace for your help.

I've had severe pain in the ankles, knees and hips - and muscle pain in the upper leg since May.

Vitamin D levels are okay.
Lupus tests negative
Thyroid levels normal
but parvo in February

Prescription NSAIDS bring no relief - need a referral to a specialist, but any ideas what this might be other than fibromyalgia?

i have some nagging groin pain on my right that gets worse every day and i work at UPS moving boxs for a living so i do a lot of lifting and kinda think i might have a hernia. i have a doctors appt tomorrow but i feel like an idiot going in there with nothing but groin "pain", because there is no obvious lump or anything except for small ones i have to push to feel and are symmetrical to my left side. i have been in pain for the past 4-5 days and my right side/groin felt wierd like something was out of place for a week before i felt pain..... any ideas so i know what to expect?

I am 14 years old and healthy. A few hours ago, I got up from watching TV for about an hour. When I did, I took a deep breath and I felt a very sharp cramp-like pain under my right rib cage. I haven't done anything strenuous recently so I don't think that it could be that. But, I have just begun gym class after a "lazy summer". Could that be whats causing it? I'm really nervous. I have a "fear" of the doctor, really, I do. Please help!!!

I suffer from migraines. I don't get them often but since our air conditioning went out I have noticed more headaches. Yesterday as the day heated up my headache became worse. I have prescription Imitrex and took one but it didn't help (that was a first) As the day cooled my headache lessened. At the end of the day it was completely gone. At times I would get cold chills and my head would absolutely pound. Could my headache be heat related?

Every single night I wake up in terrible pain in the calves of my legs. I have a constant feeling of pulled muscles during the day in my calves now. In the night, they cramp for about a minute(feels like an hour), and then they stop after I rub it real hard. I am waking my boyfriend up when I get them. I've tried more potassium, eating bannanas, watermellon, drinking tonic water, taking Q20 or whatever that pill is called. Nothing is working, anyone have any suggestions?
