Suggest Treatment For Persistent Muscle Cramps

I continue to have muscle cramps. I drink lots of water/Gatorade. I have cramps all the time! My toe/fingers will cramp at any time! The worst thing is my back, around my shoulder blades the cramps/spasms are continuous. ITS HORRIBLE and nobody has been able to help! I have had every treatment/therapy/surgery out there and NOTHING!

Hi, this could be due to calcium deficiency. You should do blood calcium and phosphate levels. Calcium tablet should be started once a day for 2 months.
Take care.
