White vinegar: I don't see how vinegar can relieve muscle cramps. Those are not substantiated claims.

Check parathyroid : White vinegar not helpful. You need to check parathyroid gland function since they are usually located in the thyroid gland and if resected can result in hypocalcemia. Also check on ionized calcium which may be low.Do PTH assay.
