I had some very similar symptoms back in '97. The pain was so bad in my leg, I couldn't stand or even sit for more than a few minutes without pain, but I could lay down with no pain at all. That's when I started going to a chiropractor, and within 2 or 3 weeks the pain had subsided immensely. I've never had it recur, thankfully.
