I had swelling and adema before treatment, and I had some pain during treatment, particularly if I neglected my increased water requirements. Once again, if you are doing Hep C treatment, particularly Incivek or Victrelis triples, always have water handy, even at bedside, and never pass up a chance to take a sip of water. This is so important, not just for comfort, but also for efficacy of treatment. Do not waste all this pain. Maximize your chances for success.

Pottasium and lots and lots of water is what helped me. I had gotten put on diurectics and started having the same problem. Found out simple dehydration is common for those cramps. Definately address your Dr.
Seperate ailment, but I also have siattica that flares up from my lower back and shoots pain through down to my ankle.

I read ankle pain was a Sx. And I do get it. You should check with your doc. on this one. I just got over a killer blood clot in my ankle. Stay in touch! Brian
