Sorry Doreen-wish you could eat bananas. My father has had the most horrible leg cramps for years, they would be so bad he would roll around on the floor in agony. If he eats a banana it raises his potassium and his cramps go away. I have Restless leg syndrome, ended up having to take a muscle relaxant at night so I could sleep. Eating a banana helps with daytime cramping in my feet and legs. (Soap in bed never helped either of us.)
Almost forgot, for years dad got a prescription for quinine and it worked. Old doc retired and newer docs won't prescribe it, they say just drink soda that has quinine in it. Dad would be in bathroom all night if he drank enough soda for it to help.
