yes, it must be a migraine. It's weird though, I get tired of this tiny localized spot of pain so I pop an Advil or Tylenol. But before the medicine would even have a chance to take effect (like 10 minutes) the pain will abate. and then I think to myself, ahhhhh I wish I had just waited it out.
TOnight I have been getting this really yucky sensation in my left calf muscle. It feels like worms crawling around in my muscles. It definitely scores a 10 on the creep-factor-index-scale. just call me wormy girl....yuck!!!It lasted only a few minutes thank God!!

When I was younger (around 11 or 12) I went through a period of migraine's. And I would get a similar HORRIBLE headache, and the entire left side of my body would go numb and tingly, including my the left hand side of my tounge! I would also throw up a lot, and be very very very sick. This went hand in hand my menstrual cycle (sorry boys!). Maybe you are getting some sort of migraine?
