Hurt like a *****!

My younger daughter (11) is a sleep walker. Like clockwork, at 10 pm she comes into the living room mumbling gibberish. I walk her back to her bedroom through a dark hallway. On way back to living room I must have stepped on it. Felt like stepping on a tack. 30 min later, felt like my whole leg was on fire! I could literally feel the progression move up my leg from my foot.

I iced my foot off and on for 5 1/2 hrs. by 3:30 am I was tired enough I could fall asleep. This morning, it still hurt up to mid shin if touched anywhere on my lower leg. Now it just feels like my foot is asleep. I get the pins and needles sensation when I walk.

Always wanted to know what a scorpion sting feels like. Now I know. It hurts, but still not close to passing a kidney stone! Just glad it got me and not my daughter!
