I have been on Levothyroxine 50 mcg for six months I have really bad leg cramps and in the morning when I wake up I can barely bend my ankles to walk I am 45 years old I have also gained 10 pounds since I have been on this medicine.

take extra calcium with magnesium. Also potassium for cramps. Do 1-2 drops of iodine (get at health food store) and read reviews online for armour thyroid drug.
