I've been dealing with a bulging disc at L4 L5 S1 on my right side, and I used to get this electric shock-like pain down my right leg when sleeping, walking, or sneezing. But now the pain has switched to my left leg in the same area, and the worst part is I'm getting that shooting current-like pain in my left front thigh joint when walking.

I've been dealing with this throbbing sensation near my temple since last October. My physician put me on Restyl for a week and then switched me to Librax, which I've been on for the past two months. But the heaviness and occasional throbbing are still there. Any idea what's going on? Is there something else I should be doing or taking?

It sounds like you've been dealing with persistent throbbing near your temple despite taking medication. The heaviness and throbbing sensation could be linked to stress or other factors, but its important to follow up with your doctor to assess the situation and adjust treatment if necessary.
