You sound like me when I was beginning my medical journey 25 years ago. 15 years ago, I started having hip replacements and spine surgeries. I went nowhere for 20 years with the neurosurgeon and he gave up and finally sent me to the orthopedic surgeon where I was wheeled into surgery almost immediately. But it was too late. The nerves exiting my spine were already crushed to death and my vertebrae’s actually grafted together. You are probably on your way to Spinal lumbar problems, and there are many things that can be done in the interim. You might need to be at a good pain management doctor where they do facet joint ablation and look at spinal compression and things like that. There can be one little blip on your spine that’s pressing on your nerves Going down your legs to your feet, causing numbness, burning tingling all the rest. Each part of your legs and feet correspond with a nerve root exiting your spine. So it would be best if you went to a doctor and pain management doctor that worked as a team and could give you diagnostic treatments to diagnosed where your issueis originating from.

My MRI is normal for the lumbar spine.
