First she describes localized spots of sharp s/l linging pains that are random throughout the day. They last only seconds. She has felt them on the top of either foot, in a separate area of both of her thighs, her right low calf and her left lower back.
I cannot figure this out. It clearly starts with an "L" and I have tried every word I can think of but just cannot figure out what this could be. It is not lingering as the pain last only seconds. TIA
