You ever cramp so badly in your sleep that it wakes you & you literally jump to your feet?

I don't think I've ever felt a cramp that bad in my life until this morning. It felt like a baseball in the back of my calf & I woke up yelling "FUK FUK FUK WHAT THE FUK IS THIS? JESUS CHRIST OWWW WHY? FUK!"

Then I leapt out of bed right to my feet because it felt like laying down was making it worse. Finally it started to fade but yeah that incident woke me right tf up 馃槀 I wasn't even tired anymore lol

Like I've felt plenty of painful cramps before but holy hell that one was by far the worst 馃槵
It doesn't hurt still but I can still feel a lingering sensation in the spot it was at.

Charlie horse, i hate those damn things! One hit me the other morning when i was trying to get out of bed. I had to massage and massage, i couldnt even stand. It hurt to even touch it. Geez!!

@Indy74 oh wow 馃槸 that sounds dreadful. Our bodies hate us lol
Too often! in my calves, me feet and my thighs.
I think I'm broken.
Potassium helps, electrolytes help. But not enough.

@nonsensiclesnail oh wow.. that would be unbearable after dealing with it for a while. Do massages help at all? Not after you already have a cramp but maybe often enough that your muscles are relaxed?
@ChiefWalksWith40oz I've never thought to try!
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@nonsensiclesnail Well hey it's worth a shot 馃し if it helps I'll expect flowers & a thank you note 馃槍

Creatine does that to me if I take to much of it.

And my dumbass will flex the same muscle three or four times to see if it still cramps up.
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@Lostpoet you gotta do the pain test 馃槀 I can relate to that lol
NickiHijabF
Yeah, that shit is lethal
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30

Yes, except for the leaping out of bed part. It feels like what I imagine a stab wound to one's muscle would...except the pain would last a lot longer.
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@Piper your cramps feel like stabbings? Wow that's tough. Mine feel like... 馃 I guess somebody trying to force their fist through my muscles or something. Or like something squeezing me with more than human-like strength

@ChiefWalksWith40oz I'd rather not know how it feels to get literally stabbed with a sharp object, in my calf muscle or anywhere else. But yes, those cramps hurt [b]bad[/b]...for a relatively brief time.

[c=4C0073]i've only ever had tummy cramps, but not that bad[/c]
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@SW-User [c=4C0073]I imagine those still suck though. I used to get them in my ribs all the time[/c]
SW-User
@ChiefWalksWith40oz [c=4C0073]rib cramps? that's .. a different kind of period pain[/c]
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@SW-User [c=4C0073]yeah my periods are so unpredictable 馃う right when I think I know what my bodies doing it switches up on me[/c]

@ChiefWalksWith40oz are you gonna chop your leg off?
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@Nebula I'm considering it 馃 I can still feel it when I take any steps 馃槀
Nebula41-45, F
My foot yes.. I gotta get up and do laps
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout you do laps to keep it from happening or are you doing laps to make it wear off after it's already happened?
@ChiefWalksWith40oz wear it off. Get it normal again
Adstar56-60, M
Yes.. It is really bad when i get them in the calves mussles in the lower leg... Because i have to get out of bed to press my foot on the floor to strech out my calf mussle to stop it..
uncalled456-60, M
Yes! It's no picnic.
AzlottoM
Yes. I was cramping so bad (almost every muscle in my body with irregular heartbeat) I was rushed via ambulance to the ER.
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@Azlotto holy shit dude 馃憖 What happened?
AzlottoM
@ChiefWalksWith40oz I was low on magnesium and potassium...I never thought a mineral deficiency could mess a person up that bad.
ChiefWalksWith40oz26-30
@Azlotto yeah I wouldn't have thought so either.. I'm taking this as a lesson lol so now I know.
