Idoyon my symptoms are exactly like yours--did physical therapy help???? I feel like I am going nuts--Plus where I live in Pooler Georgia there are no indoor pools which is really the only exercise that I can do forever--This sucks --what exercise works for you! when I walk I get these spasms in my lumbar area which is where my spinal damage is located-what meds are you on? My older children think I am going to fall over my balance is off too!!! SUGGESTIONS

find a GOOD MFR therapist and go 2 times a month. Increase your exercise SAFELY. I got an indoor exercise bike for $129 on Amazon. took me 3 years to get on it, but once I did, I found it really helped the weakness/pain in my leg due to damaged nerves exiting my lumber.
@ldoyon - yes - I was told all that "stuff" but I have radiculopathy from 20 years of waiting for lumbar surgery. I take low dose opioid for the coccyx tailbone pain and exercise (safely) as much as I can. I had a horrible problem with my foot. But after the pain resolved I had MORE mobility in flexing my toes for the first time in a decade! Healing does occur. @tyronie1117 - forget what your kids say - what do YOU SAY?! do you think your balance is off? Walk with a cane. Its better than falling and breaking something!
