What Causes Recurring Leg Cramps While On Plavix?
I m male. 60. Caucasian. With a history of C.A.D. I have two stents. I have hypothyroidism that s under control with meds. My high cholesterol is also under control with meds. I take plavix to thin my blood. The last two weeks I ve been having recurring leg cramps, ankle, calf and thigh. Middle of the night and late in the day. I stay hydrated all the time. I also am on a diet and eat 2bananas a day. I m not sure why I m having all these cramps of late

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is the nonspecific complaint you have and it is nothing to with the history of cardiac disease and stent but is the muscular condition and it can be best managed with Tab Ibuprofen 200 mg as per needed, drink more water try to stay away from the stress hope this information helps.
