When they put me on Januvia, it caused it. Back then it wasn't listed as a side effect so no one thought that was it. But when I stopped they slowly went away. It could be an electrolyte shortage, a lot of the time potassium. We used to tell people to eat bananas at the store to see if it worked. Now I have spinal stenosis and when I swim I get leg cramps easy and when I first lay down I get feet cramps that a heat source by my feet, like a hot water bottle stops it. Be careful you don't burn any skin though, especially feet.I think diabetics can be more prone to it sometimes because high sugars in the blood can thicken the blood and make circulation not as good.</blockquote>
