Okay I thought t it was a ordinary cramp but the movement of searing hot pain knotted up my leg and into my groin and took about ten minutes or so before it would stop. So could not even get u p any movement just made it sting and burn more. Is this siatica? It is really extremely painful I noticed today and tonight that that left ankle is sill quite stiff..I can only hope this does not happen again to night. have had this before but not often thank goodness.Again it was toally uexpected and always on my left leg.

@Hatley I do occasionally get these but only in the calf muscles ,especially if I stand or walk for long times during day time. Are you taking any mew medicines?Drinking of a lot of water is good.

@Hatley I do hope it does not occur again.It is quite incapacitating.

could be a nerve pinched a bit, be sure and get up and stretch often when sitting at the pc for long periods of time

@Jessicalynnt yes there are some moves a physical therapist showed me to keep you limber when you sit a lot.

I hope that pain goes away. That does not sound good at all.
