Question for Dr. Curry

Hey Dr. C just wanted to ask you a quick question. Do you know if there are any vitamin or minerial deficiencies that cause muscle cramps or problems. Started going to the Orth. and he put me on the steriod pack and the celebrex did not help so he is sending me for an MRI today but I am wondering if it could be some kinda deficiency that is causing the problems (having cramps in my calves and also still pain in my right groin). Just thought I would bounce it off of you to see if you had any thoughts. Thanks, Donna

It is possible to have muscle problems from calcium, potassium, or magnesium deficiencies. Although unlikely, it's probably worth checking out! C
