Neuropathy from lumbar stenosis?

Jennifer,

I have small fiber neuropathy and cord compression in cervial area (4,5,6,7) and some in lower spine. I also have intense sensitivity to heat. I can't find anyone in Pittsburgh where I live. May I ask who you saw at Mayo. I have a facebook page but really not much of one. I have been struggling for long time. I have all over leg pain at times--also knee arthritis.

I’m late to the conversation, but I had very successful spinal surgery for spondylothesis L2-3, repair of a disc herniation, disc replacement, and lamenectomies for spinal stenosis done by Dr Mark Knaub, Penn State Spine and Joint Institute, 30 Hope Drive, Hershey, surgery done at Milton Hershey Medical Center four years ago.
After surgery, the terrible leg and back pain was gone. I still have the right leg peripheral neuropathy from the disc herniation, so numbness and balance are issues, pain waking me up at night maybe every other week.
It takes awhile to get an appointment, but take a look at his CV, he’s very accomplished. The care at MHMC was excellent.
