Last night I woke up to a SEERING unstoppable pain in my leg. IN my calf muscles. They felt cramped. It felt like entire muscle had just shriveled up to the size of a raisin. I finally got the muscle to stretch back out. a while later I wake up to my other leg cramping up! And try to get that one straightened out.

Now that I wake up, I'm OK but my calfs are pretty fuckin sore and feel like they could cramp up again if they can get away with it...
Any ideas?

All you can do is to stretch your leg, try to get it as straight as possible. Works for me, it always stops when I do this.

And soreness is a normal thing after these cramps, it will last a day or two.

You got a Charlie Horse. Tracy's right, stretch stretch stretch. And to dig up one of our old debates, dear sir...... DRINK WATER.

A Charlie Horse? Fuck me those hurt. I thought I was gonna be crippled.

Debates? About drinking water? But I like water... But I think I remember what you're talking about.

Well I woke up and went for a walk to the donut shop a couple of blocks down and now my legs feel way better. It was hard to walk at first, I must've looked like an old man on prosthetic legs... But once I got back they felt much better.

bananas, kiwis, and leafy greens prevent cramps...i know from years of personal experience...you're probably lacking vitamins in your body...

it sucks, and HURTS LIKE HELL, but if you massage the shit out of your crampy leg, and works the knots out of your muscles, usually in a warm bath, it helps alot. but you have to make sure that you don't do anything to tighten your muscles up for awhile untill they can relax, or it'll hurt again.
