Brief Answer:
You need to take calcium and salt

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. Increase in salt and calcium in diet can help you. You are drinking water without salt that is not helpful. So you add one tea spoon ful of salt in one glass of water and you will feel immediately better.
Also take calcium and vitamin D 3 daily. This will help in increasing your muscle strength. I hope this answer will be useful for you. let me know if there is any other followup questions. thanks
