I have spinal stenosis. I was Diagnosed with it last year. I hurt my neck and went to the ER. They did a cat scan and it showed i was fine. About a week later i was getting tingling and burning sensations down my left arm and such. So i went to urgent care and the doc there order an emergency MRI.

I had a 2 day follow with my doc. He then diagnosed me with Cervical Spinal stenosis. He then referred me to a physical medicine specialist. He went over the MRI with me and explained that both my nerve roots and spinal cord is being compressed.

He tried all the conservative treatments. Some worked for a bit but now my symptoms is more constant. So I am in contact with him again and see what else I can do.

So they may try pain meds, physical therapy etc... on ya.
