kqcrna said:Lyn, I think it started as a result of my foot problems and abnormal gait, and has just continued to build. However, if you do a little googling, you'll find that nocturnal leg cramps are very common as we age. According to this paper, it occurs in 50% of people over age 50

Thanks, Karen.

I think I just need to upgrade my gardening shoes. Spring came early this year and last year's shoes are pretty shot.

It makes sense that your cramps might be due to your foot problems and your getting the orthopedic shoes.
I know when I stopped wearing high heels, I had cramps in my legs and feet for a whole year.
