I get cramps in the muscle between my thumb and index finger. Its kinda the shin splints of the guitar playing world. I do a lot of jazzy bar chord work so that muscle tends to get a heavy workout. I friend once told me bananas and advil as a cure for that. Keep plugging at it. Stretching your hands before and during a set helps too.
