Strange feeling of heat in my leg

[Glam Gran]

For the last few days I've been getting a very strange sensation in my right leg, between the back of my knee and the top of my calf. It's a feeling of heat which lasts for a few seconds.  This happens about 2 or 3 times an hour. It's not painful, it just feels weird. My leg is not hot to the touch, it's a kind of internal heat (quite hard to describe!). I have a desk-based job but I do get up and move around regularly. Also a couple of times in the last few days I've had a kind of breathless feeling and can feel my heart beating very quickly. This also lasts just a couple of seconds. I don't know if the 2 things are related.  Can anyone shed any light on this please!

You have come up with as agood an explanation as anyone else.
Next time you meet with those beings, let them know that their experiment works & it's time for another with new subjects. You in particular. :)

Nick,
As with all others, I have a similar situation.
I cannot believe that medication is involved but might be contributory. I take NO medications at all at 71 and have had this condition for about three years.

I also have an appt to look into this, in part, & will get back to compare my thing with your thing in 10 days or so. Why do I get the feeling that I'm going to get a dull stare & shrug of the shoulders?

My hot, flush "wave" as I would probably describe it, seemed to begin about a month ago which coincided with a reduction in my prednisone meds.  In my left thigh, in exactly the same sport when it comes, last only a few seconds, but it is strong enough that you couldn't miss it.  No pain or discomfort, I don't think the skin is hot to the touch, so my observations are very consistent with those in this thread.

Going to the doctor for my yearly checkup, if I hear anything of substance, i will report back.

It is so creepy to me, under my left leg has been having this same heat sensation which occurs every hour. Any advise, I hate going to the docs..

Mine started 4 days ago, sitting on a very cold porch, and all of a sudden, a heater went on by the outside of my right ankle, lasted a few seconds, happened every couple of minutes. Now its starting in my upper thigh and racing down the outside of my leg.  My thigh seems to be numb when it happens and I am having some restlessness in the same leg, but that could be because I'm aware of it and I have been a little worried about what is causing it. Nerve issue was my second thought, and as with others blood clot my first, and I am glad to read that its not a blood clot. I'm coming on 50, overweight and a light smoker, so lots to worry about there. New year, new life! I am going to chat with my doc about it, but since I can't seem to find anything but this chat session about this issue, I think I will stop worrying about it for now. Thanks everyone!
