HEre is some virtual chicken soup...
for a cramp in foot, I know this sounds weird but it works for me,
squeeze your upper lip... also, step on a cold floor, or rub with ice...
I get calf cramps and arch cramps in the middle of the night... wearing
socks to bed helps somewhat though that sounds odd too.
My husband gets foot cramps, too... a result of nerve damage due to a
back injury. His doctor recommends gin & tonics. Something about the
quinine in the tonic water that helps >the cramping, and the gin acting as
an overall muscle relaxant. Worth a try!
A gin gimlet (with Bombay gin & Rose's lime juice works for me) so I doubt
it is the tonic water!
I only wish I could get a doctors prescription for the stuff.
Feel better, John!

My doctor has been ragging me to eat more vegetables, cut down on
sweets, get more exercise ... generally improve my lifestyle to improve
my health.
I finally got started on the exercise part last week. I've been going
out every day and walking around a nearby lake. It has a 2 mile paved
Green-way around it. If I walk at a moderately fast pace I can make it
around in a little over 30 minutes which is the minimum exercise my
doctor has been recommending. I've managed six of the last seven days.
I've got a horrible cold. Every time I start coughing it feels like my
head is going to burst open. I've got a cramp in the top of my right
foot that no amount of stretching will relieve and I've got bruises
today because some asshole on a bicycle knocked me down. He came around
a blind corner too fast from behind me, knocked me ass over appetite and
just kept peddling on. He was gone so fast I didn't even have a chance
to flip him off.
I'm afraid healthy living is going to be the death of me yet.
