Hello! Good Day! I've read your concers and will try to breakdown the anwers for you. Whole body cramping can be from several factors- electrolyte imbalance, dehydration, lack of oxygen in the body. However, in your case, it might be caused of lack of thyroid hormones since you stopped your thyroxine. If I was your treating physician, I will request for the following: thyroid function tests, electrolyte panel (Na, K, iCa), CBC. Treatment depends on your results.
