Thecal indentation probably isn't doing much, but could be, and depending on your central canal diameter, long tract signs into your legs and feet are doubtfully on the radar but could be. These are just possibilities....doesn't mean you must have them...

Thanks for the info Dubious,
I have been suffering with less feeling in arms, down to hands, dropping things, as if arms are useless.
Also pain is spreading to lower back, and right leg.
Pain is immense through whole of body, making me less mobile.
Doctor has prescribed Gabapentin, I've had bucket full of Pain relief, which has not eased it, next step Morphine???
I'm trying to find as much info, so as to understand, other than just pain.
My MRI also says Smaller disc osteophyte bar present 4/5 slight narrowing of exit foramina, no where near as extensive as above, that I quoted!!
Thanks for your info,
