They suspected MS and arent really suspecting it so much anymore but it is still a weight on my mind...im wondering if a spinal problem may cause the same symptoms? Anyone had any experience with this? Thanks  |
My symptoms (numbess/tingling/cramping in both legs and disrupted walking ability) are similar but not as widespread as yours; but they are certainly caused by damage to the spinal chord in the lower back region. MRI diagnosed this, with main underlying cause, I am led to believe, being pressure on nerve through bone spur growth and stenosis.
