A member asked:

I had gastric bypass 2 years ago and now am having muscle cramping in both arms and hands and overall don't feel good?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Muscle cramping can be caused by deficiencies of calcium,magnesium & electrolyte imbalance. You could try taking a magnesium supplement daily. If no improvement, see your physician for evaluation, testing and advice.
