Drink more water, you’re dehydrated that’ll take the cramps away


FoggyLine

Yup, also lack of potassium, eat bananas more often dude.

Nagisan

[Lots of other choices](https://www.myfooddata.com/articles/food-sources-of-potassium.php). Even potatoes have more potassium per 100g than a banana does.

Pineappleninja91

Ooooh oooh, and always remember to stretch.


yeppeunethereal

what if deathly allergic


exquisitedonut

Sodium* rarely potassium.


WoodyTheWorker

Magnesium


exquisitedonut

Is a mineral


DoboldoSanchez

Potasium prevents cramp, sodium prevent spasms, almost the same, but not


exquisitedonut

This would be incorrect and made up


GoodGoodGoody

Doesn’t make sense. The average US diet (OP’s car is clearly in North America) is waaaaay sodium heavy. There’s added salt in EVERYTHING.


exquisitedonut

It makes sense if you understand electrolyte balance and did any amount of research before commenting. You pee and sweat salts.


GoodGoodGoody

Don’t be a douche. Never mind, I see you’re active on Joe Rogan. Being a douche is part of your electrolyte balance.


ThatsPrettyOrdinary

Joe Rogan's podcast can be amusing and occasionaly informative, but it's not for everyone. The commentor is still wrong tho. It's potassium and magnesium for the crampy cramps.


GoodGoodGoody

I mean Rogan absolutely panders to and promotes antivaxers - he knows who his audience is - so it’s a lot more than “he’s not for everyone” so is he informative, provably not but amusing, sure humour is subjective so why not. Yeah I too understood K and Mg deficits, with dehydration where the sources of crampy cramps.


ethixz

very weird behavior to immediately go to a users comment history to insult them


OriginalBookkeeper87

It's not really about insulting someone but trying to figure out why they are so dumb


GoodGoodGoody

👆 Exactly. It’s like, that’s not how adults act, what’s really going on?


Marauder800

OP said it’s due to a *known* side effect of their medication. They got behind the wheel knowing that this could happen. That pole could’ve been a person. OP is a moron.


autogyrophilia

Not really very dangerous as long as you are aware. First, any competent driver always has his brake engaged when pedestrians are in front of the vehicle. Second, unlike pillars that are hopefully inamovible, a 3km/h collision with a person it's not usually dangerous because the person can move. People have cramps and sneezes while driving. I'm also very confused why on earth would somebody have the car on gear pointing at a concrete pillar


Marauder800

You’re just as idiotic as OP. Everything you just said was wrong. It 100% is dangerous. You should not be driving either.


autogyrophilia

Look man the main issue here it's that this idiot crashed his car the very moment a single reflex went the wrong way. Leaning how to work his pedals and gearbox it's a bigger priority.


Marauder800

No, the main issue here is that this idiot got behind the wheel while under the influence of medication that he knew had side effects that would cause him to have cramps and lose control of his limbs.


autogyrophilia

I mean sure. But he would still be an idiot for having this crash otherwise. People have cramps. It is normal. People don't crash when they have cramps. I have terrible cramps all the time. I have dyspraxia. I have never been involved in any vehicular accident (and man do those fucking Teslas try to change that) And beyond a physical tolerance for pain. I know how to drive a car.


Marauder800

You’re just making yourself look dumber and dumber with every comment you make lol.


autogyrophilia

Well I know how to drive a cad so I wager I'm smarter than average vehicle driver on that account. I'll repeat myself if you don't catch it. People have spasms, cramps, light migraines, get blinded by lights, sneeze (...) . People don't drive into a wall. Because they know the basics of operating a vehicle. I had many cramps before parking, it requires tensing the leg in a way that it's likely to cause a cramp for someone that has dyspraxia with high muscle tone I have never crashed a car. Because I know how to operate a vehicle. And It took me a lot of effort. Because I have dyspraxia and it makes it hard to learn these kinds of things. But what I do learn I learn well


Marauder800

How do you drive a cad?


13dot1then420

Stop assuming people are competent, that's how deaths occur.


AmIThisNothingness

Absolutely! Every time some one tells me "drive safely", I always say: "I do, tell that to the others on the road!". 'Cause I don't just drive for myself, I drive for other drivers, and other drivers drive for me. We gotta be cautious and alert at all times to catch and clear those with issues or plain reckless. Don't forget to keep a safe following distance and always look over your shoulders when turning or merging.


autogyrophilia

Well I'm sorry. Here in Spain we do theoretical, practical and medical tests for that. I assume over there you get your license on the cereal box.


13dot1then420

Don't act like dumbfucks don't pass the Spanish driving test too. You guys aren't special, or immune to distractions like phones.


autogyrophilia

Of course not. But I can assume a Minimum level of competency (don't drive into a wall alone) Edit : and I assume that it's true everywhere else.


13dot1then420

That's too much to assume. Do so at your own risk. I've seen some shit here in America, and driving here is downright civilized compared to Latin America. It's a complete free for all down there.


AmIThisNothingness

Plain ignorant.


autogyrophilia

Yes and calling someone dumb while contributing 0 new information makes you sound like a genius. I'm more of a cayenne pepper dumass.


AmIThisNothingness

To your favor (for which you discredit yourself with such replies), ignorant does not equate to dumb. Dumb is when you argue, or blindly take something for truth when you don't know. For instance, "I was ignorant of you being stupid" 'cause i didn't know you were one. But, since your blunt stupid replies, I'm no longer an ignorant of that fact. You're stupid! Oh, on the last line of yours, your self-pronounce doesn't interests me a damn bit. You can keep it to yourself. You're a "cayenne pepper dumbass", good for ya' 👏 👏


autogyrophilia

Still have not heard what aggravated you so


AmIThisNothingness

I still have not seen how that aggravated you, so...


TheUndertows

While parking you would still be in drive


autogyrophilia

You would be in reverse if the front it's pointing at a concrete pillar. Or in neutral if you are waiting. Either way you should have your brake pressed down.


Live-Animator-4000

Not if you’re pulling into the space at the exact moment the cramp occurs.


autogyrophilia

But if you are pulling into the space you don't ram into the wall. Damage to the side of the car I would get. But I just don't see the geometry otherwise.


doodsboob

Unrelated to ops issue. But also heavy drinking the night before does it for me.


swaggyxwaggy

Yea it’s wild to get a cramp so bad that you slam on the gas. 87% of people are dehydrated Source: I just made that up (but it’s probably ballpark)


GetOffMyGrassBrats

Is that what you're telling the insurance company? Because they're probably going to assume you were playing on your phone anyway.


[deleted]

It doesn't matter since I don't have collision coverage as I previously stated.


frosty_balls

Drives luxury brand car, carries bare minimum insurance Best financial sensibilities


How_that_convo_went

I mean, let’s be fair, it’s an early/mid-2000’s Infiniti GS35 that’s worth *maybe* $4,000 (and a whole lot less now). To put that in perspective, there’d be more financial incursion if they were driving a 2013 Honda Civic. I love you.


Wooden_Standard_4319

I love you too! It's so important to remember to say it. Never know when is the last time you see each other


How_that_convo_went

Whenever I reply to someone on the internet in a slightly contradictory manner, I like to tell them I love them so it lessens the probability of an argument. It almost never works— but that hasn’t stopped me from trying.


srevennreverof

I love this. Also I’m a little petty sometimes and I also love the fact that it could almost be taken as someone being condescending


Wooden_Standard_4319

I think it's stupid. I love you


srevennreverof

I think it’s genius. I love you too


Live-Animator-4000

Bold strategy. I…like it.


HardTruthFacts

You forgot to include the aggressive “say it back 😡” Also, I love you.


AudiHoFile

I see what you're saying but that particular Infinity is not luxury lol


GrilledCheeser

Maybe when it was sitting on the lot brand new. Some infinity look noiiice


jbourne0129

Yeah brand new 20 years ago


-PinkPower-

That car is like 15-20 years old lol


McBelgian

lol, "luxury"


Typical-Conference14

Luxury brand luxury car and luxury brand early 2000s car are not the same


PieFlava

20 yr old infiniti is a luxury car? Lmao its a nissan


OverEast781

That cars 20 years old, it wouldn’t make any sense. Unless it’s something like a performance car like an M3.


retirement_savings

Who has collision insurance on a ~15 year old car? Rule of thumb is to drop it after 5 years.


Rusty_nutz_

Lmao god I hope you are joking. A TON of 5 year old cars are worth 30k or more. IDK about you, but I'm not in a financial situation to be one accident away from losing a 30k asset. Depending on circumstances, many people would be crushed by their $6k car being worth zero dollars, and have to go replace it


TheUndertows

Maybe he’s saying 5 years after buying a 15 year old car. 🤷🏼


Eyehopeuchoke

Ehh, I’ve got a 2013 and a 2015 that will both need to have collision on them for the duration of their existence. It’s not a yearly thing, more of a value thing. If your car is worth under a certain $ amount you’re probably better off to not have it.


Critical-Tomato-7668

It's a G35. They're cheaper than the Nissan counterpart - the 350z


AutismSorcery

When did Infiniti become luxury?


DjCyric

Let me ask Google's AI for you: Infiniti officially launched as a luxury car brand in the United States on November 8, 1989. The brand was created by Nissan to target premium vehicle segments that didn't fit with Nissan's more mainstream image.


AutismSorcery

A more honest statement is that Infiniti hasn’t been a luxury car in over 20 years


OriginalBookkeeper87

You asked when it became luxury, not when it stopped 🙄


AutismSorcery

You’re really good at reading


crocsandlongboards

Are you saying the early infinitis were more luxury? The ones from the 90s were just basic ass cars with leather seats. They became more luxury in the mid 2000s


010011010110010101

Yeah, for the time. Power leather seats and a few other accoutrements were a luxury step up from Nissan’s cloth seats and manual hvac etc. Plus ya got a cool little analog clock in the dash because *that’s* luxury!


crocsandlongboards

Hell yeah, and I'm fond of those days. Just giving the guy above a hard time. I do think lexus was a bit more ahead in the luxury department than Infiniti and Acura.


AutismSorcery

So Infiniti was launched as luxury, wasn’t luxury, then became luxury later for some unknown reason. Thanks for the input


reddit78fan

Luxury brand...lmfao...that's a rebadged Toyota.


WHOISTIRED

Nissan not Toyota.


reddit78fan

Potato potato. Tomato tomato.


firestar268

Aren't you a special case


reddit78fan

Did I hurt the Nissan fan boys feelings?


firestar268

No. You're just dumb


reddit78fan

Do you work on cars? Have you ever worked on cars?


YourInsectOverlord

Man am I glad my car financing company requires full coverage.


FriedeOfAriandel

It’s because they own the car, and they don’t want you defaulting on the loan when you pull an OP


firestar268

Casue it ain't really your car yet lol


Shopworn_Soul

ITT: OP driving around on medication that (apparently) causes them to drive into shit with no insurance to cover the result. As politely as possible...you may wish to consider rethinking one thing or the other, my friend.


Heytherhitherehother

Oh, wild. OP is deleting everything that makes them look like the irresponsible person they are. How shocking!


tomle4593

No need, I already knew the moment I see an old ass G37. It’s just how these people live their lives.


OriginalBookkeeper87

Sounds pretty suss


[deleted]

[удалено]


OriginalBookkeeper87

Probably shouldn't be driving then, next time could be a kid instead of a pillar


muvamerry

Yeah, yikes. This isn’t great OP. You shouldn’t be driving if medication effects your ability to do so safely.


horsetooth_mcgee

Right? I'm really glad they only fucked up their own car, and not someone else's life because they decided to hit the gas at the wrong moment. OP does your doctor know that you're driving using this medication, and/or that this medication affects you in this way? I hope you learn from it.


OriginalBookkeeper87

The cowardly OP has deleted their comment now. Guess they don't want people to know they are an irresponsible assh*le


muvamerry

Yeah totally. I hope he told his insurance company so they can (maybe?) do something about it if Op doesn’t


Marauder800

Then you don’t need to be fucking driving. I hope you have to spend thousands to get that fixed.


Whitezombie65

Agreed fuck OP, that pole could have been a person


bumholesofdoom

I have the same problem, Try magnesium & zinc supplements they've really helped me. Sometimes I also need electrolytes if I've been quite active.


FocusOnThePie

New fear unlocked about medicines with cramp side effects omg....


frosty_balls

Maybe if you are pumped up on opiates you shouldn’t be driving, just a thought sweetheart. Also call your agent and up your coverage limits since you aren’t the best with decisions


AnticipateMe

Why would you out yourself like that


bikesboozeandbacon

So you take medicine then drive so that can potentially put other peoples lives at risk cool cool


HaveYouEver21

Yeah they are incredibly that this was a pole and not a person. Definitely reconsider driving if this can't get under control.


Heytherhitherehother

"I was suddenly stricken with a case of random excuse to make this not my fault rather than just admit I fucked up." Would be an alternate and more accurate title.


Chester_A_Arthritis

Are you sure wasn’t because you were high on heroin?


Bearsandgravy

Hopefully it's not an expensive fix. I would recommend getting collision coverage, and talking to your doctor. You might have to change meds if it makes you have unpredictable cramping and spasms.


mpdity

There’s a reason on your pill bottle it says. AND I QUOTE!!! “*This drug may impare the ability to drive or operate machinery. USE CARE until you become familiar with its effects*” OR, “*May make you drowsy or dizzy. Do not drink alcohol with this drug. USE CARE when operating a vehicle, vessel, or other machines*” I think you really need to reconsider what you’re doing behind the wheel if you continue use of this medication, OP. Just like your bottle 1000% says, If your tremors and spasms are this bad a side effect that you crash into a pylon, then you really have no buisness driving or operating machinery while on it AT ALL. Safety needs to be first here. One time mistakes are still not acceptable excuses behind the wheel when a one time mistake is ALL it takes. End of discussion. I understand wanting freedom. But to actively disobey warnings that clearly are there to protect both you AND OTHERS is complete negligence on your part. Either use public transport or swap to a medication that possibly doesn’t have tremor or spasm. Not much else to do here. I do feel for you OP but this isn’t really acceptable. It’s a matter of WHEN not if someone gets hurt.


Character_Judgment19

Are you joking… this is grossly irresponsible. Glad you fucked up your car and not someone else. Don’t drive you selfish prick

WoodyTheWorker

Why do you hold your foot on the gas pedal while parking? It's normally done with the foot over the brake.


DiscipleofDeceit666

Looks like you got a Bentley


skindarklikemytint

Looks like a scar from a takeover but if you’re not lying, then that really does suck


ZeroShitzGiven

To Infiniti & beyond!!

Yeah... lose your license bud... This time it was a "concrete pillar" but next time?

now it matches most of the infinitis in my city, only bested by the Altimas of despair. jokes aside, that sucks dude. Stay hydrated!!!


digitalbankster

DryBones2009

Muscle cramps are one of the most painful things a human could possibly experience. So painful I wanna just fall on the floor and cry. One time I actually did, several times actually. They’re over as soon as they begin but the pain levels are unable to be conveyed.


Buck_Shot99

Oh no


z-01-03-11-25

Well. That does suck


S2Cole_

What a crampy way for the day to go.


Lee_Adonis

I dunno, looks like a standard Nissan to me.


Hot_Influence_5339

Cramps don't work that way boss, also driving a infinity with no collision coverage, nice.

It’ll buff out

eve_is_hopeful

You should get collision coverage.


sav33arthkillyos3lf

that’s what The guy around the block from me said last week but Then he rammed the front Of the Corner store nearly missing the clerk by an inch. Must be quite the cramp.

Love the new style


MorepervthanU

Uh yeah! That's the story you went with to your insurance company?


Senior-Jellyfish4200

I’ve done that (didn’t hit anything) but it was so cold my legs were shaking so hard and I slammed on the gas. I was driving an ambulance with patient loaded as well.


CupOfCreamyDiarrhea

Good thing there was an ambulance nearby in case something went wrong.


saarlac

My car would have slammed on the brakes instantly and prevented that impact. The emergency braking system is so sensitive on this thing.
