Hi,
Cytomel withdrawal is unlikely to cause leg cramps. The usual cause of leg cramps are vitamin B12 deficiency, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, dehydration and electrolyte levels derangement. See your clinician for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
