Maybe there are a couple things you can also check out on your own, and take the info to the doctor when you go:
what angle are your knees at when you're sitting? And do you lean back ro forward in your chair? you may be pinching a nerve somewhere along the line, or hyper-flexing a muscle...
do you fidget, tap your feet, flex your toes, clenck your butt (sorry if anyone's offended) or ANYTHING like that?, you might be giving yourself a charlie horse or just a tired muscle if you're inadvertantly flexing or tightening a muscle in the back of your legs.
is it only in a certain type of chair, like those "special" musician's chairs that go in and out of vogue every so often? My old HS had those and invariably my right leg would go to sleep if I sat the way I liked to, with my right leg forward about 4 inches...
hope some of this might help...
