How To Cure Severe Spasms In Leg?

Help I have been having severe spasms in my legs and arms for over 3 months. I have them continuous all day long probably three or four per minute. They are under some what control with some pain medication by my primary care doctor. I have had a PAD test, and many lab test and everything is coming back normal. I am scheduled to see a neurologist in two weeks. I do have degenerative disc disease and have had neck and lower back surgery in the past. I know what that kind of pain that feels like and this is totally different. It is so severe I have been in the ER twice in the last 6 months. Now last night my index finger for no reason at all become so rigid I could not move or bend it even with my other hand. It only lasted about 30 seconds but was very strange. I am wondering if this could all be connected somehow. I am 61 ones years old and no other health issues. I work full time and this is starting to really become a problem for me. Any ideas of what is going on? Thanks for any and all help.

usually the cause is hypocalcemia tetany calcium or potassium deficiency .
get enough calcium from your diet as milk,white cheese, yogurt and eggs.
also drink plenty of water and banana..
