I put it in the bed last night, so we will see if it works. I should put it between the 2 of us as I get them sometimes too.
My doctor told me to drink a glass of tonic water every night before bed. I mix it with diet Splash to take away the bitter taste of the diet tonic water. No more leg cramps!
