I'm sure you remember several months ago when I had an episode of very bad pain in my left leg. I don't know if your's feels the same as mine did. The only thing I found that would help was alternating between a heating pad and and ice-pack, and pacing continuously to keep the muscle from tightening up. I also knelt on a pillow whenever I was on the computer or watching TV, or anything like that. None of the painkillers I have, whether prescription or over the counter, seemed to help one bit, and when I went to the doctor, all he could do was refer me to a specialist. But of course by the time I got to the specialist the pain was gone, and all I could do was try to explain what it felt like.

My pain lasted for six weeks, from just before Thanksgiving until Christmas. I hope yours lasts a lot less. I wish there was something more I can tell you, but I never figured out what was causing my leg pain, or how to alleviate it effectively. I send you my best wishes, though, and hope you start feeling much better soon.

Good Luck,
Idealist
