Could Severe Muscle Cramping And Stiffness Be Due To Mobic?

I have just started taking Mobic for siactica...on the 3rd day of 15 mg of Mobic I woke up with severe muscle cramping, tightening in my leg calve. This is day three of consistant cramp/ tightening. Is Mobic the problem? I have been using heat and stretching but this does not help. I have scheduled a massage for tomorrow evening. Thanks for any insight, Nickie.

These all symptoms may be due to some low back pathology,hence you need an MRI of your lumbo-sacral vertebrae to rule out any pathology there to begin with.
