Pain in shin

Started just over a month ago with a shooting pain on the outside of my left leg when getting up/ sitting down / bending down then progressed to my shin as in it feels like somebody has kicked me Saw gp had full blood count done all came back ok so I’m awaiting a referral to orthopaedics basically no idea what the problem is!
Been prescribed amitriptyline for pain but bit put off by the reviews

Hi, this sounds a bit like sciatica (I have it & didn’t realise it can go down your shin) maybe go & see a physiotherapist as they will be able to diagnose it & find the root of the problem - it could be emanating from
your back/hip area…..
