ah i've been getting leg cramps too, not the really bad ones that have you in tears, i seem to be able to catch it and pull my toes up to stop it, but have it a couple of times a night, never thought it'd be down to the seretide.

Hi Mardi,

I was always getting cramps in my feet, it was terrible, but never associated it with my seretide.

Makes me wonder though,as I havent had any in a while, still on seretide.

Is it because of all the other meds I've had to take lately?

Have had antibiotics, steroids, and nebs?
