Hi everyone

Thanks so much for your support - it really means a lot to me. It's hard to explain the associated fatigue to someone without MS - I get tired enough without the leg thing, but with it, it multiplies my fatigue considerably. You know the drill, the brain is having to work even harder to make everything work together

My treatment so far has involved physiotherapy - massage (once by a massage therapist, and my husband has massaged my leg as well) ultrasound therapy, electro-therapy etc. The physio suggested I use a rolling pin on my calf, and do some stretching as well, both of which I am doing but it doens't seem to help much.

I will certainly do the magnesium thing, I haven't had cramps in my calf for a little while, and it doesn't really hurt much unless I am walking.

Thanks again

Hugs

Lyn
