They say cramps are caused by dehydration so overnight I must have downed about half a gallon of water and an oz of salt .. nothing worked, some say mixed with water will bring results, I tried that and obtained limited success though I had none yesterday .. anyone know of other treatments or preventative measures ??

You are likely dehydrated. Pinch the skin on the back of your hand. Does it snap back down? Hydrated. Take a second or two? Dehydrated. Stay standing? Go to a hospital.
