AND me . Placebos have never worked on me like they do with many. Ohhhhh that power of suggestion. Nothing else worked either, ie. mag oil on feet and calves or xtra potassium. But lately, I've done nothing and haven't had any cramps for a few months now, go figure. I had them at nite and when I was doing Pilates. Stopped Pilates due to increasing back pain. Pat

Pat ________________________________ From: PT Ferrance ptf2...@bellsouth.net If it happens at night I would suggest throwing a couple of bars of soap into your bed. No need to unwrap but it must be soap and not a detergent bar. I know it sounds crazy but it does work for many.

When I use a product called First Endurance EFS (Electrolyte Fuel System) it helps a lot. But it's very expensive. Does anyone have any other suggestions for replacing electrolytes on a budget? -- Alan Jones "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
