Thanks heaps girls!!!

Lucy - I love Milo so that's an easy 'remedy' for me!! Any excuse for milo is a good one!
Emma - I hope you don't get cramps...maybe the advice here will help you avoid them!
Kellxx - sorry to hear about the pain in your shins...I'm glad I haven't had that at least...I hope it doesn't last too much longer...

Thanks heaps to everyone else also! I'm hoping the milo works and will try a few of the other things too...
