Well, It Only Took Me 68 Years To Find Out

[poliphilo]

All my life I've suffered from a leg that aches when I go to bed and keeps me awake. My left leg as it happens.

Last night it was particularly bad and I was thinking of taking extra pain killers or a slug of whisky.

Instead I had a drink of water.

And it cleared up immediately.

Wow, hopefully that process repeats itself!

It also worked for me the second night I tried it.

Thank you for posting this! We're in the midst of a heat wave here, and for the last several nights I'd had the same problem with a cramp in my left leg keeping me awake. So last night, having read your post, I drank a glass of water right before bed --- and voila, fell right to sleep with not a trace of cramp. In the immortal words of Gene Wilder, "It... could... WORK!"

That's brilliant.

Worked last night, too. It's a keeper. Thank you again!
