Cramps

[Nikki J]

Can you all refresh my memory? For over the counter remedies for cramps magnesium and/ or tonic water for the quinine right? Am I forgetting anything?

Told the neurologist Tuesday no cramps, so of course they started last night! Grr!

Thanks everyone!

Drink tonic water for the cramps. Also pickle juice can help.

Hang in there. My twitches had settled down for the most part. But today muscles on the left side of my abdomen twitched constantly.

Thanks Tracy! So far I can stand my twitches as they are not too bad but the cramps were NASTY!
Sorry your twitches are so awful ( something to look forward to I know!)
Best wishes

I think that's why they give me Baclofen ...

And Gabapentin.

When pills come in tablet form, you can cut them open with a sharp knife and crush the contents into apple sauce just like you would any other pill.

Thanks all took magnesium last night and was much better. Going to try 2 tabs ( full "dose" is 3 a day) today and see

I take magnesium and enjoy a couple tonic waters and limes each afternoon. The cramps are worse at night after I've overdone it a bit during the day.
