I also suffer from numbness, tingling and a lot of pain in my legs and feet. Numbness and tingling in both arms. I've had six back surgeries. My last mri showed that my spinal steno sis is getting worse. It has been suggested that I have a cord decompression at the T9-10 and T7-8. I know this surgery is very risky, given the area it is affected. Has anyone had this kind of surgery for this particular area.
