What is the best way to get rid of cramps? Because I have this and I'm about to lose my mind and I can't leave work early! I already took 2 extra strength tylenol and it's not helping at all! I don't have a heating pad or anything at work, I am miserable!:(

Midol or motrin. Of course, the heating pad is wonderful. What else.. Warm drinks, coffee, teas, cocoa. Even warm soups will help. Another thing is to stay away from salt, no matter how badly you crave it.

Oh, I bet all that soda I drank today didn't help though. Does caffeine help, is that why you said coffee or just because it's hot?

Thanks for all the info, I love green tea, and I will have to try that. Seeing as how I already have a potbelly, I will probably shy away from that prescription you mentioned :) But thanks for the tips on Advil, I assumed 1 was the normal dose as well.

My best friend when it comes to cramps is Midol!!! I couldn't live without it. :)

I ran out yesterday, that's why I have the Tylenol, I just got them at Kwik Shop b/4 work, the individual pack, I didn't have time to go to the grocery store to buy more Midol! :(
