I also take potassium.

I haven't had leg cramps, but I have had cramps in my toes (and did before this WOE). I think it's lack of potassium for me. I had one a few days ago and hobbled to the cabinet for some Mrs. Dash, which contains potassium. I don't know if there was cause and effect, but the cramp went away shortly after.
