Hi AAIREY,
I'm so glad you are on EmpowHer!
Your GP and their staff is there to help you and provide care for you. If the pain is a concern, I would definitely call them to ask what they think it could be. Are you having any other symptoms besides for the leg cramp/pain? How active are you? Do you sit a lot during the day?
When I was pregnant, I had a bit of trouble with my sciatic nerve, the pain would radiate up the back of my right leg, and tingle. I was almost frozen in pain when it would flare up. I know how leg pain can be excruciating. Here is a posting from last year that may at least shed some light about what "could" be going on, see if it sounds familiar to your experience:

Good luck, and please let us know if you talk with your doctor, and if you have any more questions.
