I suffer frequently from muscle cramps ( legs, feet, hands, stomach), even though i take a potassium supplement. what's wrong? how do i stop this?

Muscle cramps: Get an evaluation. Were you prescribed potassium due to a low level in your blood? If so, have your blood level tested. There could be other causes of muscle cramps such as a neuropathy, vascular problems, or medications like statins for cholesterol.
