    Funny you should post,
    I was just telling my Mom I woke up Thursday night from a deep sleep with a Charlie horse, I was literally half asleep jumping up and down trying to walk it off...so painful.

    I get foot cramps every day. I've been on Tamoxifen for over 4 and a half years.

    A good friend of mine told me that a spoonful of mustard takes them away. I tried it, and after a while it did work, however, I'm not 100% convinced it was the mustard. I think maybe the Tumeric in the mustard is good for that.

    But I really don't know of any cure from this particular side effect that really works. I'm hoping others can add to this.

    Hugs,

    Sylvia
