Cramp
« on: July 03, 2009, 07:49:01 AM »
The Brat woke up at 3.30 this morning discretely yelling the house down because she had cramp in her leg.  This is about the 3rd time in a couple of months and it is always in the obscure hours of the morning  evil:

Growing pains my mum would have called it  noooo:  but I can't remember suffering cramp like that   noooo:

I have told her it is God's punishment that she doesn't keep her room tidy and she will keep experiencing muscle seizure until she shows some remorse and restorative actions.

She rolls her eyes at me - but I couldn't resist this morning when I responded to the emergency screaming to comment that I would have got there faster if I hadn't been slowed down by the barricades of clothes and general debris in her room  whistle:

Dioralyte is prescribed in powder form by Doctors. It is mixed with water to enable it to be taken as part of treatment for dehydration (often a cause of night cramps if the patient isn't taking in sufficient fluids during the day.

Or were you being "ironic" as the Yanks would say?

No this is proper from a chemist and everything! Failing that get her that sport lucozade stuff if she won't drink the water stuff. Mind you I used to get cramps really badly when I was her age too. Growing pains.
