I have terrrible muscle spasms in the arch of my left foot.  I thougt it was because I had surgery on that foot and needed another procedure.  I never thought of thyroid.

I get the spasms mostly at night.   What is your experience?

I had tarsal tunnel syndrome. It hurt so bad, I kept going and going till it was so bad, I had to sleep with my foot hanging off the bed.

It was caused by the hypothyroidism.  Sometimes a podiatrist is good at diagnosing these. I had surgery. Three incisions.

Welcome.

I've had foot cramps related to all this.  They can get really bad when my magnesium gets too low.  When things get severe I have to put a mag tablet under my tongue (which is something I hate to do since I read supplements and meds can have a negative effect on tooth enamel).

Hope you get more answers.  Good luck.
