My Neuropathy is non dia as well. Hasd a vascular test (ordered by my Cardiologist..not Neuroigist). Had several back epidurals...I have also been diagnosed with severe stenosis L4,L5.
Just after my Prostatectomy in 2015.I started having the foot numbness then hands over the years...No one wants to link it to that..but that's what I believe.
I just want one who understands and has options...Pennsylvanian.
By the way I spent thousands and any thing that said would help...no luck.
Thanks for reading
God Bless!
I was diagnosed with idiopathic axonal polyneuropathy (EMG) and spinal stenosis (MRI). I did have successful spinal stenosis in 2004, but now it came back. My buttocks hurt all the time when I sit on a chair, on a sofa, in the car, or lay in bed. However, my doctors are very careful to identify the stenosis as the cause of my neuropathy. The neuropathy is mostly in my feet and I luckily can still run with proper management (insoles, pain patches). Recently, I been experiencing more and more tingling in my legs. My gut feeling is that the stenosis is involved, but I don’t really know where to go from here. Back surgery brings its own risks.
Just compressed nerves? That is a huge thing. Back surgery? Or do you suggest something else for compressed nerves?
