I do.... Usually in front, right under my rib case and at night when sleeping I notice my lower legs sort of twitching..... But, I am taking 50 Spiro, and 5 of Finn.... soo????????
I think I got it, it has something to do with low potassium levels. Yes, I know spiro is potassium sparing, but it's still a diuretic..........which means potassium in muscle is lowered. Tricky business potassium, nothing to f**k around with. Reinforces the importance of having blood work being tested.
Another thing (especially in the morning) is the lack of muscle mobility overnight, I usually get them in the morning too, painful too.
