My GP advised I try 4 oz of (diet) Tonic water- it contains quinine- seems to work! I also realized recently that statins are known to cause cramping- so might try reducing that, and lay off the tonic to experiement- see if that's the culprit, see it mentioned above, as well.

I did that and it seemed to work for about four or five months, then stopped working. I guess I got used to the little bit of Quinine in the water and need more, which I could not get without drinking a ton of that stuff. I was advised by my doctor to also take Vitamin E with it.
