Try some lemon in your drink, add some more salt to ur diet, eat bananas and keep hydrated.  Magnesium is good to but check with someone to make sure you take the right dose. :-) I hope you can get on top of it soon. :-)

When I feel a leg cramp coming I point my foot down and it stops it or makes it less painful.  Hope that helps

Try just staying hydrated and eat bananas (muscle cramps can be caused by dehydration and low potassium).
