I'm not an expert on this and online has given me some "meh" answers. Any truth to it??

There might be.
I had an issue a couple of years back where I was getting wicked cramps all of the time. I brought it up during a physical and the Dr said that I was flushing out all of the electrolytes by drinking too much water. Without enough electrolytes your body doesn't make use of the water that you do drink. Viscous circle kind of thing.
I cut back a bit on the water and the cramps let up. So cut back or up your electrolyte intake.
