Have you had a recent mri? I thought that people can have pain in their legs but it come from the back. My condition is in my legs and I also have very tight calf muscles that are painful but my severe issue is inner ankle/foot/calf anyhow they kept testing my back and the brain to see if it was originating there which for me it was not but for you it could. So did he do the emg? Did you get the resuts yet? I am sorry your old doctor acted that way and hope you get better direction soon
