Definitely add magnesium to the mix!

I agree, your Mom definitely needs more Magnesium in her diet. She could get prescription Mag, or simply add more in her diet - eating cashews, and almonds, for instance.

Suggest she try flexing her foot next time a cramp comes on, as opposed to pointing her toes. When my magnesium was low (just after ATG) I would be woken by awful cramps sometimes, and trying that really helped.
