I am wondering if anyone has a simple remedy for leg and hand cramps?

Question by snowmom: I am wondering if anyone has a simple remedy for leg and hand cramps?
I am a diabetic and also suffer from Lymphodema in the worse way, mainly my right side is groteusquely huge with edema and it hangs down below my knees. So often cramps and pain just keep me up all night and then some. I have become so unable to move around that now I use an electric wheelchair, most of the time. I'm not sure but I wonder if the inactivity is making all this cramping and pains. I really have no faith in any doctors any more too many quacks, who helped me get where I am. Sorry I'm just alittle bitter at times, I'm 53 and feel and act older than my 87 year old mother.
Oh yes I should have mentioned the edema makes movement very hard my last weight was 429#, sickening isn't it? it isn't food its lower body water that can't be removed.

Eat a banana a day, the potassium should keep the cramps away.

get a little help from someone who knows basic carpentry, even if you have to get a handyman. for a few dollars more, you can have a very nice ramp complete with rails,etc. without seeing the intended project, i cant help you.
