Do you have neck or upper back pain? have you had an MRI of your neck or back? Do you smoke? Describe what the cramp feels like.  I've had surgery on my cervical spine (neck) and I wake up with cramps, achiness, tingling in my forearms and hands.  So my symptoms can be associated with those issues.  I'm trying to find out what could be causing yours.
