Could T9-T10 cord flatten cause leg weakness?

@usriders I had spinal cord compression in my neck, and it did affect my legs, and my gait was uneven and weaker. Compression in the spinal cord may be able to affect a body part below that level, so I think your situation is similar. Compression of the spinal cord can also cause bowel or bladder irregularities and lead to incontinence. Your specialist has to officially answer you, but I think that you are correct.
