    Discuss this with your doctor before you take any supplements.

    I hope you realize that that's just a fancy way of making salt water?

    If you say so; however, I get plenty of sodium every day by dissolving a couple of bouillon cubes in the appropriate amount of water and drinking 2 cubes daily. Kind of begs the question why this particularly "fancy way of making salt water" works for me when nothing else did, doesn't it? Also makes me wonder if it has more to do with the timing of when I'm getting the majority of my salts in, so more food for though. Hmmmm...

    I wonder if I could fall back asleep after taking a shot of pickle juice?
    I wonder if a shot of something more interesting to help with taste would still allow it to be effective?

    Dill pickle juice worked in seconds for me. Great stuff. It has lots of nutrients that leach out of the cucumbers and helps the cramps go away amazingly fast.

    I am on Keto / Paleo and I have many of the same issues you described.

    I found that adding more healthy fats - especially organic animal fat, peanut butter, coconut oil made a difference. Also, when I am cramping up, I eat grass fed butter and it seems to help.


    <snip> because I have no desire to give this addition space

    Good luck and friend me if you want! :smiley:

    Completely inappropriate without speaking with her doctor first to ensure there will be no interactions with her existing medication regime.

    OP, see your doctor about your concerns. FYI, people of all hair color build tolerance to narcotic analgesic. I know plenty of non-redheads who take large quantities and you would never know. It's a natural human response.

    I am also low carbing. About three months now but last week my foot did the same thing. It looked like a prop for a horror flick. Went to the kitchen drank pickle juice and it was gone. Like it never happened.

    I made a magnesium spray and use that on my legs almost every night. It helps with the leg cramps and the restless leg syndrome. That is almost more annoying because it never goes away.

    Another one to say you need to see your doctor. It could also be a side effect from the combination of the multiple strong drugs you are on.
