Susan, I have both PN, spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis.
My initial orthopedic visit and X-rays made the doc think I was 'clearly' not candidate for surgery. The problem for me is that every day I wake up my PN feels much better. Then throughout the day my actions begin to take there toll on may back and the numbness in my feet and lower legs gets multiplied by a lot. Did you have this experience? I'm trying to separate out which of my symptoms seems to be PN and which is back problems. I feel a little as though I'm in no ones wheelhouse.
