Epidural Lipomatosis

[Epidural lipomatosis is a rare disorder in which an abnormal amount of fat is deposited on or outside the lining of the spine. It may press on the spinal cord and nerves.
Symptoms

Symptoms vary, but back pain and weakness are the most common ones. Other possible signs may be a loss of sensation or reflexes that are too slow or too fast.] http://www.cedars-sinai.edu/Patients...pomatosis.aspx


What are your symptoms & pain level?
They may have started with the x ray to see if a MRI or more extensive testing is needed.
