:wave: If your doc didn't give you a script for quinine tabs, go back and get one. I was having these little charmer cramps, only at night, in a sound sleep. They woke me, and before I knew it I was standing straight up wondering who had stuck a burning poker into my calf, if they were just annoying I could live with that, but they hurt like the dickens, good luck :)

Thank you. I also have another doctor's appointment this Tuesday. This has just been happening too much for me not to get it checked out again.

Hi,
I sure do hope I get some responses to this post....I've been having these unbelieveable leg cramps, maybe 2 or 3 nights a week. They seem to happen at night, when I'm at rest, my left leg just starts to cramp up into the WORST pain! And it's only in the left leg, NEVER the right one. They last a couple of minutes, and then afterwards sometimes, my leg feels sore for a while. Has anyone ever had anything like this, in one leg? I went to the doctor for it a while back, he ran some blood tests, and all he told me to do was take Advil at night. Yeah, right...oh, and I take a multi-vitamin and a calcium supplement every day, no other meds, no caffeine, no smoking or drinking (yes, I'm dull!) Thanks in advance.

I HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM.
QUININE WILL CUT OUT THIS KIND OF CRAMP IN JUST MINUTES.AND, I CAN TAKE IT PREVENTATIVELY WHEN I KNOW I HAVE TENSION BEFORE THE CRAMP OCCURS.
TRY IT!!! , RAY
