Leg weakness from Peripheral Neuropathy

Posted by bennettrory @bennettrory, Jan 18 6:37am

Hello all! I have had a lower back injury since 2018. It has been undiagnosed and I have had many nerve tests coming back negative. But when ever I push my legs limitations. I lose the ability to stand or walk. Due to the nerve damage. Anyone else have these symptoms? I desperately would love some insight or knowledge on how to bounce back or make things better. Thank you

in reply to @bennettrory I have a similar problem, and for which I am seeing a back surgeon this coming week to find out if the tarlov cysts that have come back after having them removed years ago, is the cause for this 'new' sensation of weakness I often get now in both legs. While I am walking 3-5 miles per day, frequently in the evening, I find that my legs feel weak, not from walking. I hope that potentially having back surgery again will alleviate the issue. I did not see you mention anything about what I have, and I wonder if you have any kind of diagnostic studies, other than nerve studies, that might explain your issue

Yeah I have had those mri come back negative. But pushing for another mri asap. Gonna schedule and hopefully find out what's going on. This year I plan on finally finding out what's wrong with my back.

Dear @bennettrory
People of MAJO’s member, users, and doctors are great!

xxx LOWER BACK xxx
Your have physical problems like: little feeling of your feet, little walking, nerve damage, lower back injury…

xxx NERVE & LOWER BACK xxx
Pain, too? I ask, that happened to you?

xxx FOR ME… xxx
I feel down on my garage and hit my rear-ends on my wooden steps. That ended of cutting the grass, walking a lot of me & my doggies, picking up of anything, and more. The pain hit me 2.5 years ago. But 9 mths ago, I had a surgery of my lower back in one side and fixed the nerve - a big nerve - before my doctor could show me on the side. Thankfully, we fixed it and how he fixed it. The problem was a large nerve and then moved it back to normal place.

I hope the best way for you,
Greg D. @greg1956

PS: Yes, I went thru doctors over doctors until the right doctor happened me. This doctor, 12 years ago, he took care of my brain-injury accident that day. But now, he’s there 9 my]ths ago and he tested of what he made my back every 3 mths.

I hope the best way for you,
Greg D. @greg19
