Hi, Lois. I did put a piece of Dove soap under my bed sheet and it helped. It was the sliver that is left when you take it out of the shower. Maybe a whole bar would work better, but I didn't want to keep banging my toes into it.

I have ongoing electrolyte issues and have found that potassium works better for my leg cramps I know this will sound like I'm way off my rocker. I know I did when a friend ,{ several years ago } told me to " just try it.." I would get killer cramps after a 5-6 mile hike...I put a bar of soap--{ I think Caress ) {also use Irish Spring } , some say ivory is best } under my bed sheet...Don't laugh---I have not had a cramp at night ever since...I e-mailed my friends with the crazy idea & found that 3 of them do the same thing---one girl even carries a bar of soap in her purse & has one in her desk drawer to rub on her leg if she gets a cramp during the day... I typed " leg cramps & soap " & did a search. It's all there & it works for me...Lois
