Electric Shock Sensation Radiating Up Left Leg After Long Shift

Hi, 

I've recently been having some health issues, but one symptom that especially worries me is a feeling of electric shock that radiates up my left leg. It happens when I step down on that leg, and only after periods of exertion like a long, physically active shift at work or a game of tennis, etc. 

I first experienced this at the end of a 10-hour retail shift when I was about 20 years old. I'm now 26, and it's happened 2-3 times already this year. 

Does anyone else experience this, and/or have a likely explanation? 

To be honest, I am incredibly worried about MS and degenerative spinal disease. 

Thanks in advance.
