Hello fellow Wegger's. Hoping that I'm not reposting something here. I was diagnosed with WG after confirmation from VA Thoracic Surgery. I began a protocol which I have been on for 2 months...(daily Prednisone being tapered, Septra, Cyclophosphamide 100 mg. / day, calcium supplements...and other support stuff). In addition to some other pretty crappy side effects I experience cramping/soreness in both my calves...and sometimes while driving when my hand is clenched around the steering wheel my hand will spasm, almost palsy-like where some of the fingers "seize" and are unresponsive for up to several hours. The calf cramps last a long time. My question is...."Has anyone experience with "Tonic Water" ingested as a relief or therapy for such cramping benefitting from the "Quinine" in the beverage. Any other Quinine sources prove useful? Does it really work? I have not seen results yet.
Walter...in Surrey, BC
