    ooh, I got those quite a bit. They are the worst! I've learned to recognize the early signs now, and can usually head them off by flexing.

    They do suck...I make sure to drink lots of water...and for some reason my mom swears by tonic water...if they show up frequently I drink it and I don't know how or why, but it seems to help!

    Unfortunately I've had lots too. I talked to my Dr. about them and she said to eat plenty of bananas and potatoes (with the skin). She mentioned avocados too, but I'm not a huge fan. If you wake up and have one in the middle of the night, stand up on it as quickly as possible. As soon as I put pressure on it, it goes away. I tried to stretch them out as they were happening and it only makes it worse. Good luck!
