For the last 2 years I am having trouble with circulation I think ?
It felt like a charley horse . Some times I have to get out of bed and go walk around for a min. And other times I need to go sleep in a chair.
It kind of goes away a while and then comes back ! When I am in bed only.
Does any one know if there is some thing vitamins / food that I am lacking on this ?
Thanks for any help !

I did and all she said was I have enough ? [ what ever vitamin it is ]
And went on to tell me what was next on my list.
That was the first time I went to a doctor in years......
Since I had a blockage years ago ! And they wanted to operate one me and my son does a lot of reading and told me to take some herbs.
Well, he was right ! I am still here !
This was not the same doctor. So now am I just lucky to pick the wrong doctors ?
Try to eat more tomatoes and see if that helps. They are an excellent source of potassium. A lack of potassium can often cause leg cramping.

Hello Helen,
That is what the doctor told me I have enough of !
And she shrugged her shoulders as if that is all she could do / or say !
Grams, The Mayo Clinic says most night leg cramps are harmless. Probably why your Doctor said what she said.
But since you had blockage in the past it is possible to be peripheral artery disease.
