Brief Answer:
Likely diabetes as cause for nocturnal leg cramps

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and i understand your concern. Night leg cramps are of multiple causes but your diabetes mellitus resulting in peripheral arterial and neurological damage is the likely cause.

Night time / nocturnal leg cramps are mostly innocuous and harmless and increase with age. Medicines like estrogen, naproxen, blood pressure meds, diuretics and cholesterol lowering meds or iron can also cause leg cramps.

Nutshell it is not to be worried about and should be treated symptomatically with pain killers. Meanwhile focus on strict glycemic control and good podiatric care for legs to prevent diabetic complications in legs.

I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
