hi there, just wondering if these symptoms ring a bell with anyone before i visit the my gp.

on wed night i started experiencing some pain in my bottom on the left side that started to spread down my left leg. i could still walk, bend etc without aggrivating it. On thurs when i got up i could hardly walk, the pain was so bad i was dragging my left leg. It feels like a burning sensation. As the day went on it felt like my whole pelvis region was burning, again going doing both my legs at the front this time. By thurs night i was in agony, i could feel it in my back so i took some strong co-cod and went to bed. Fri morn just as bad, (seems better when i lie down) only as i went to work and got more active, the pain got worse. It was slightly better yesterday but feeling it again today. I normally have very bad period cramp before its due and my period came today, but this is def not period pain!

Any idea what it could be?

meant to say, waterworks, bowel movements etc are fine, not any more painful when i go to the toilet, however when i lift my left leg it seems to get worse. It often feels like its burning inside my (TMI) vagina.

Sounds like it could be sciatica. Trapped or irritated nerve in spine. Go and see Dr to be sure.
