I found this on the web yesterday and it might explain the feeling in your leg...
"Unilateral [one-sided] occlusion [blockage] of Middle Cerebral Arteries at the stem results in:
Contralateral [opposite side of the body] hemiplegia [numbness] affecting face, arm, and leg (lesser).
If on left: global aphasia [loss or impairment of the power to use or comprehend words]."
I had numbness/tremors in my left leg with the TIA's on my right side before my first surgery.
