Does your bed have a footboard?

I've had muscle spasms in my legs and feet since I was a little kid. (makes me wonder how long I've had the MS now)

What I used to do when I was younger and my childhood bed had a footboard was to put my foot on the footboard when the charley horse/spasm hit and press down on my toes and ball of my foot to make the spasm go away.

Now what I have to do, since my grown-up bed doesnt have a footboard is to get up immediately as soon as I feel a charley horse starting up. Then I have to either stand there precariously, depending on how far charley got, and then walk around. (and then pop a baclofen or two)

I think I need to go buy a bed that has a footboard...either that or sleep with my head at the foot of the bed and use the headboard as a footboard from now on.

I'm expecting to have a stampede of charley horses hit me tonight. I finally had the energy to get to the gym and ride the exercise bike today. (yay!) I just hope it's more a couple of slowly walking small shetland ponies instead of galloping clydesdales leading the stampede of charley horses.
