@soccer1477 Yes, I did have spontaneous jumping muscles inside on my thigh and calf on one leg. That was being caused by spinal cord compression in my neck. The first symptom I had when it all started was my ankle hurt like something was biting me and that was only when I turned my head. When I looked forward again; it stopped. I know that was caused by the bone spurs raking across my spinal cord.

You may want to ask your providers if they can assist with some pain management to get you through a trip to Mayo since you wouldn’t be doing the driving.

Is there a surgeon you have in mind at Mayo?
