Never heard of the banana thing, don't think I'm gonna try it tbh, I have really bad heartburn 24/7 and anything at all before bed just makes it worse lol

lol ya I get the heartburn too... I was eating bananas for awhile, but it didnt seem to make a difference

I think its just from walking to much. I get it more when i've been working lots.

I tried the banana and it worked. Legs not restless at all. Yeah! it didn't seem to make my heartburn worse but it's quite bad anyway so it was hard to tell. Need to go shopping for more bananas now!

thanks for this info! I was sure it was a lack of something but not sure what!

I was getting cramps in my calves but havent had it for ages, then all of a sudden its come back with avengenge!

Usually lasts about 30 secs and I rub the area where it hurts to try and take the pain away, but last night it was continuous, I was close to tears and started to get quite worried. Then I needed a wee and I couldnt walk it hurt so much

ahhhh come on baby iv had enough now! lol xxxx
