A brief recap, I am in UK and had my first neuro appointment after waiting for 8 weeks. I have had numbness/burning/loss of sensation in legs and now all the way up to torso although my arms are fine, thank goodness.

He did a few walking tests, heel to toe etc. tuning forks for vibration and said my left foot is weaker (which I can feel) although I think it is the whole of the left leg and he thinks it may be spinal compression causing the neuropathy and wants to do an MRI to rule this out first of all. The wait should be no more than 6 weeks.

I feel that my gait and balance is getting worse quite fast and look forward to getting the MRI although he did say if it was spinal compression or impingement they could only halt the problem and not improve it. Will up date later after test. Thanks.
