Time to figure out something for dinner. I don't have much food in the house, but I probably have a jar of pasta sauce and noodles--I guess that's not bad.

I agree with you, jpf, but I "went there" last time. . .

3: I don't think Red Horn is even reading other people's posts. Seems kinda trollish to me, certainly no substance.

#3. Well, I have to admit I don't read every post, though I do try to keep up. I've yet to be called a troll, though I've always wanted purple colored hair.

02/28 Entry #2 . . .

I somehow managed to knot EVERY single muscle in my left leg, making walking IMPOSSIBLE!! On a scale of 1 to 10, this is a 13... literally the highest level of pain I've ever experienced!!

I'm going to make all the posts after Midnight a second contest...same rules ...same prizes. I will close the first part of the contest as soon as I can get back to the computer!

Thanks, Tree Peeps!!!!

NOT GOOD . . .

OUCH!!!!

Is it possible that you're having leg cramps? I get them sometimes--and, yes, the pain is excruciating! Every time it happens I seriously consider calling 911. When it happens to me, I can literally feel the muscles seize up into balls.

Two things work for me--drink some tonic water immediately. The quinine in tonic water has a pretty quick effect to reduce the muscle spasms. The other thing is take some potassium. When I'm having this problem, I often take up to 1000 mg.

Sorry to hear you're in pain! I hope you feel better soon.

SO DITTO ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ As I have mentioned before has always helped "Me", especially when I drank at least a glass of "Tonic Water w/ Quinine" a day when they were bad . . . Matter of fact, I actually have "Quinine" pills (Qualaquin - that I am hording for those absolute must take days) - which can help in decreasing frequency of leg cramps - However, they are no longer recommended ( Quinine for night-time leg cramps no longer recommended ), especially for anyone who has heart problems/disease and/or diabetes . . . SO even with that said . . . Now - Every bone in "Your" body will say - NO ! ! ! . . . However, as I was once told and even though I did not believe them - I found it does work, at the first sign of/experiencing any Leg Cramps - Immediatly stand up and get on "Your" Feet (and flex them as best you can) . . .Without a doubt - "YOU" Will Scream, but it works and the pain is not as bad as what "You" are feeling at the moment and more importantly, does not last long as the Leg Cramps just as immediately start to subside . . . Just Sayin' . . .

BTW: There are 2 other supplements I have been told that "You" can take to help "ward-off" the onset of Leg Cramps too . . . 1) MAGNESIUM, and there is an OTC Product 2) "Hyland's Leg Cramp" which you can find in many drugs store and on the Internet . . .

#4.
GMO please eat a banana
This does help DH when he cramps like that.

Yep - That helps too . . .

Just can't eat them "Myself" (Very Bad Reactions) . . Instead when and if needed I drink "Gatorade" - since that can help with potassium deficiency too . . .

1- Well at my next to the last day at the Pentagon, reporting to the WTU on Tuesday Life will be much easier then.

CONGRATULATIONS . . .

I suspect you're right, tiggerrts. The irony of pointing something like this out is that the target likely never sees it.

#3. Well, I have to admit I don't read every post, though I do try to keep up. I've yet to be called a troll, though I've always wanted purple colored hair.

Of course, if you don't read all of the posts, how do you know? (For the record, I'm pulling your leg. . . .I haven't seen anyone call you a troll.)

Interesting, Uncle. I didn't know about the quinine warnings. All I know is that it's worked for me.

You're also right about the flexing. Another thing I've done, which is related, is lie flat on my back with my legs pressed against the wall (legs slightly elevated) alternatively flexing and pointing my toes.

Magnesium is also good--sometimes you can find it in a supplement WITH potassium.

Wow, I just realized it's Friday night again. Good luck everyone.

4: See I didn't even read every single post otherwise I would have already said: Sorry GMO to hear that, had it happen once and the pain took me to the ground for about thirty minutes.

 

[Susan W.]

#3. I did see that GMO was on pain level 13. Wasn't sure what caused it. I hate leg cramps. They are painful. Mine usually go away after I get my leg straightened out. I didn't know about quinine. I sometimes drink tonic water with quinine when I go to a bar with friends - I don't drink and if it's late, I don't drink caffeine. Have to change to something else in the future.

I'm terribly sorry. I hope it goes away soon. The pain, not your leg.

Yep - I didn't kow either until someone mentioned it to "Me" when I told them I had Diabetes . . . However, Quinine and "Tonix Water" has always worked for "Me" too . . . ANd I will probably still use it every now and then when needed . . .

Now - As for "Interesting" . . .

 

[jpf880]

Boardo bump! If I was still stranded you would of passed me on your way home. I was on 77.

Or maybe a Uncle bump!
