Brax is right, Muscle cramps are caused by a lack of water.
If it is warm and you're probably losing a lot more water than usual. If it's hurting to go to the toilet that is probably because the waste/tozin ratio to water is way high, which means you don't have enough liquid in your system.
You should try drinking isotonic drinks, you know like sport drinks but water with about a level teaspoon of sugar mixed in is good too. Stay away from fizzys, surprisingly they aren't very helpful and often contain more chemicals which lead to more toxins. Try to drink about a litre every 4 hours. Pain of this magnitude can be caused over several days of dehydration, if your body can't handle the toxins then they do get left in the muscle. If it persists, so if it is no better by monday then do go see your GP.

I have been drinking alot more water... i slept quite a bit this afternoon and finally around 3pm when i woke up i felt sore, but no sharp pain! It took a bit longer then yesterday... my work was pissed when I called in for tomorrow morning. If i'm fine tomorrow i'll call them and go in, but since i was supposed to open I was trying to be responsible and have them find someone else in plenty of time..... I can't go to the doctor since I have no insurance... :/ awe thanks dusky

People suffer Deydration sickness in different ways.
And sometimes the same person doesn't even suffer in the same way.
Mostly if I haven't drunk enough the warning signal is that I get severe headaches.
But one time when I got it really bad that I passed out, I never got a headache which was wierd.
But yeah seems like it was dehydration sickness, in those cases it is better to take isotonic drinks or water with sugar in it, because pure water, while hydrates you, sucks all the salts and sugars out of your cells if you drink too much too quickly. Where as if you drink water with sugars or electrolytes it doesn't upset the chemical balance so you take in water without sucking out all the glucoses and sodiums ^^
I did Biology at A level, I am also a fairly high trained first aider and they all say ISOTONIC SOLUTIONS R UR FRIENDZ!!
Weak cordial solutions good too.
Now if only I could remember important exam stuff as well as I remember all the non essenstial crap....

I should really post in 'A Venerable Vintage' but I'm just so tired my brain is not function on all its pistons at the moment. While I like that there is no one in the store at 5 in the morning, having to get up so bloody early is what I hate. Is SO NOT a morning person.

Jaydine Sparow1450 bleh... it was nearly 50 degrees Celsius yesterday >.< which is nearly 122 degrees Fahrenheit >.< I believe that's correct it has been around 100* degrees for the past several weeks non stop with no letting up and is supposed to be for a few more 100 degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit

Finally got an extra air conditioner working so its bringing my 83* F house temp down a bit. Sparow - Fahrenheit Nerevar - Looking forward to your post in vintage! But get some sleep first! I'm not a morning person either. >< In fact i'm a sleep lover and don't feel well wrested unless I get a good 9 hrs. But I could easily sleep ten or more...

I'll post in Vintage sometime tomorrow hopefully. I figure I'll have Mari attack one of them, assuming Nerevar doesn't post first attacking one of them.
