Hi friends, I'm not able to walk even after taking out 45 ml fluid from around the knee. Since 3 days I get cramps in my legs. I was wondering why my Rumy has not prescribe me magnesium .I'm feeling so depressed as I'm limping and walking. My right leg hurts.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks

    It isn't something I'd expect to have prescribed on the NHS. You can buy magnesium at any chemist. You could also buy Epsom salts and soak your feet/legs in a foot bath.

    Hi Ann I think u should see an ortho surgeon to investigate if it is Ortho issue or RA. Only a good doctor can give u his opinion.
