Hi Katie and welcome from me.

Are you on statins ?

I have heard that they can cause leg cramps....

Could it be restless legs syndrome? I get that and it's REALLY painful. (And I'm on statins too)
If it is, whAt works for me is to take a procylizine and have a sleep. Don't know if that helps. I hope it does. Take care.
