If I did cyber-hugs, I'd send you one.
I could deal with the cramps in my calves...slide out of bed and stretch them out.
I can't have the blankets tucked in, or my feet and ankles cramp. I didn't even know you could HAVE cramps in your ankles until MS.
Then I started having spasms in my thigh muscles, both the inner thigh and the front one right above the knee. That was pain that took my breath away and made me want to barf. Holy Cow.
I started taking a small dose of quinine sulfate back before the FDA yanked it because of certain risks. I get it in Canada now. Do I recommend doing that? Nope. There ARE risks, that's why it's not available here unless you have malaria.
I'm not much of a risk taker, but I was making myself sick just being afraid of one of those suckers hitting me during the night.
Other folks I know have had good results with other meds.
