Cramps...again
I awoke this morning to the most intense pain I have had with cramps in some time. I had both legs (bi-lateral) cramping on the inner part (Sartorious, Pectenius,Adductor Longus area). As it was both legs, when I stood I could not get completely upright and my knees were locked together and had to walk like a cripple to the kitchen.
I know from prior experience with cramps that it either involves a mineral imbalance (Potassium or Sodium most often) or a hydration issue. I started sucking down water by the glass full. I took a Quinine pill which I still have some leftover from an old script (which will only help prevent, won't do anything for it once you cramp up) and continued with the water for about 5 minutes.
Once my legs released, it felt better than sex. That was so fucking painful, I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror and it looked like I just got back from a loved one's funeral. Tears all over and face flushed red. I had a feeling it was a hydration issue cuz I'm currently using E/C without the A and normally after or during sleep is the one time I can't monitor how I'm doing.
As I'm thinking about it, does anyone know a good potassium/taurine type supplement? I can adjust the water easy enough, but fuckall if I wanna do that again.
Funny part was my dog thought I was playing with him, so imagine the whole time this is going on, my dog is barking at me and keeps tossing me his fetch toy while I'm trying to hobble to the kitchen cussing and grunting...
