Transmission issues!

95' 4.6L 120K miles....I was traveling @ 15-20 mph, the rpm's spiked to around 3K. After letting off the accelorator, the tranny caught again and then seconds later, the car felt and sounded as though I'd ran over consecutive pot holes. As I'm pulling off the road, the "over drive" light on the dash board was blinking non stop. I drove the car home without any more tranny issues but the OD light continued its blinking.

This morning, the OD light was no longer blinking....and w/ one trip around the subdivision, I didn't encounter any tranny slippage.

5 days prior, all fluid levels checked out OK. This morning, the tranny fluid level was low but i found no evidence of any tranny fluid leakage anywhere on the driveway.

I've read about a digital component which impacts tranny control in mid 95 models. Is it possible this could be my issue? Is it something greater or could it simply be a fluid leak?

She's run brilliantly until now and I'm worried about her health!

I am greatful for any assisstance in this matter.
