What Could Be The Reason For Night Cramps In Legs, Tingling In Hands After Recovering From Signet Cell Carcinoma?
I had a bad night cramps in both lower legs, it was so bad that i fell and couldn't get up without help. I had very sore lower legs for 4 our 5 days. I have had night cramps regularly for quite a while, and also had tingling in hands for years and not really taken any notice. I am type 2 diabetic,not on any medication except diet. I had surgery around 2 and a bit years ago for stomach cancer, signet cell carcinoma, Have recovered really well.
