when your on the floor literally paralised with pain. every 10 seconds youll get a feeling of barbedwire being ripped up through your intestines and or swallowing a bottle of bleach. they will go away for a few seconds then come straight back. sweating your bollocks off.. sometimes you throw up. these attacks last half hour to an hour then subside and your just left with a constant lingering cramp for a couple of days after.
Hot water bottles, Baths, Milk, Ice Cream, Milk of Magnesium.. these all help. but most importantly PUT DOWN THAT SNORTY TUBE! it might seem like it will help but it will only make the cramps last longer
i had a really bad attack of the cramps just as i got on a train to go to the TAA a couple of years ago, the train hadent left the station yet but i could feel the cramps coming on and knew if i didnt get off the train i wouldnt be able to move and get off when i had to (was only a couple of stops away) so i got off whilst i could but ended up having to lye flat out of the station platform floor, it was nice and cool down there to help with the sweats. but then reliased i couldnt stay there, i had a quatre of k in my pocket and didnt look my best and if id stayed there any longer id get picked up by the police. i managed to shuffle myself to the edge of the platform and just sat there for a while trying to look inconspicuous and not scream out in pain! Fortunatly my mum lived literally right next to brighton station so i got myself together and went and crashed on her sofa untill i felt well enough to leave.
