Boy did I scew up!

[Goldeneagle]

Last night about 12:30, I woke up with a cramp in my calf. Now for as long as I can remember I've been taking a drink of pickle juice to get rid of cramps. Don't know what is in it, but it will get rid of a cramp really quick. So here I go hobbling in a half asleep stuper into the kitchen. Open the fridge and grab the pickle jar. Or so I thought. I grabbed the jalapeno's! My inerds still feel like they are on fire!

But did it get rid of the cramp? Even if so, not sure it would be worth it.

Lol I am sorry. But your unfortunate adventure did just make me crack up.

Oh it got rid of the cramp, but I paid the price on this one.

We don't keep ice cream at home.

Does anyone actually know what is in pickle juice that gets rid of cramps?

If you eat runny eggs 1-2x per week your cramping problem will be gone

I usually don't post a lot of things that happen to me, but I could give Webstertroy a run for his money.

Just one swallow of juice, or several? I get calf cramps all the time. Takes days for the muscle to un-knot most times. I've been looking for solutions, and I have several jars in the fridge....

All the best,

Vinegar, water and copious amounts of sodium. The vinegar/water makes the salt more absorbable into your blood strea, which allows you to retain more fluid, thusly easing cramps.

I suggest to prevent any further mishaps, go to academy sports and find the prepackaged pickle juice in single serving units, like the 5 hour energy bottles. It can be found in the supplement area(where all the weight
lifting equipment is).

I usually carry one or two of these with me when I go on longer bike rides in the summer, and even sometimes mix one into my water bottle.

Your stomach will calm down today, but the real adventure will be when the flame thrower hits you tomorrow!! Good luck, and hope for a splash back!
