Cramping update

Last two days back outside getting physical, sweating as usual. First day by the end of 6 hours I had had enough, arms and hands were cramping up pretty good. When I got home I had 3 doses of the Drip Drops over a 1.5 hr. period and ate some muskmelon which is a good source of potassium. Cramping finally settled down.

I have been adding Trace Mineral Drops to my water for the past 6 days and trying to up my magnesium intake by eating cashews.

Today I worked 4 hours before calling it quits, in a five hour period I drank 3 qts. of water and never urinated once. Cramping was bad when I got home so I had a dose of Drip Drops and some pickle juice which seemed to help eventually. I did go into my Drs. and got a blood draw when the cramping was going on, hopefully the results will provide some info as to what is going on. I have been a hard worker my whole life and do not wish to change that any time soon. Thank you for all the replies!
