What are your current symptoms and what levels of your spine are affected? What does your X-ray and MRI report list as impressions/issues?

Have you tried any other treatments beyond physical therapy?

Have you seen a neurologist for full evaluation and testing (EMG/nerve conduction studies, etc.)?

No Neurologist, when I asked about seeing a Neurologist at one point but was told the nerve test (multiple pin pricking test) for approx 15-20 minutes on legs showed it wasn’t necessary to see a Neurologist.
So, I went to Orthopedic for lumbar pain n outer thigh and presently doing Physical Therapy of which intensifies the burning and shooting pain and numbness.
But as the old saying goes ‘Physical Therapy is going to hurt’ so I just grin and bear it

I’d have to look up the last MRI to know all the things found in spine, don’t memorize it all because not everything isn’t advanced enough to be the problem…my physical therapy is for Lumbar Stenosis
