Not having a diagnosis is very frustrating! I suddenly (without pain) basically couldn’t walk out of my sisters house after having supper there! ( So I’m using a walker since then!) This was Memorial Day weekend. I went to the ER and they did a CT scan which was clear. I couldn't get an MRI scheduled for at least a month which showed some compression and stenosis at T12 and L1. So I had surgery to alleviate the compression and try to deal with the stenosis. That’s been 2 months ago and I still can’t walk. So I am wondering if I have something like MS, Myesthenia Gravis, etc.
I also got some symptoms of Cauda Equina (some saddle anesthesia) … but no pain or incontinance. My spine Dr says the compression caused some nerve damage and they should slowly heal and I should walk again!!! I keep wondering if I have something else going on!
So I don’t have advice… maybe you have some for me! You’re too young to have all your issues and no diagnosis!!! I’m 83 but I was doing my yard work and I want to ditch this walker! I wish you the best… diagnosis!!!

Please check for superficial siderosis. Symptoms very similar of MS.
