Severe cramps in feet and legs?

my friend suffers badly with cramps.i stayed at hers other night.she was up all night with cramp and i tried to help her rub it away as it was even in places she cudnt stretch.as one bit of cramp went,then another appeared.she was in that much pain she was crying.it only seems to happen at night but shes getting no sleep and the up for work.any answers or advice please.she also suffers with polysystic kidneys.at the moment shes ok but the dr at hospital says shel need dialysis in the next 16mnths.could it be related?shes on blood pressure tablets.could that be related?shes been on quinnine off dr but that didnt help.i dont go out drinking often as i have a 11yr old but when i do,without fail,becos ive had alcohol,i get cramp when i go to sleep and as much as i like to go out,i dont look forward to that,so i can only imagine how my friend feels.

Try placing an unwrapped bar of soap between the sheets next to the feet and legs. Do not use Ivory soap, but almost anything else will work. I don't know how or why this works, but it does. I get horrible leg and foot cramps, and the unwrapped soap works every time. If the cramps return, replace the soap. You need a fresh bar about every three months. Try it, you have nothing to lose.
