I fell and broke my neck after bilateral hip surgery. Had to have fusion surgery on C3-4. Had a bad spinal cord compression. I have the same diagnoses as you! My brain is saying I have neuropathy but I don’t! My feet have the bump feeling numb up to my
Knees. Hands numb and up to my elbows. I am been given Gaberpentin and 3 other drugs for seizures /epilepsy which I don’t have none of which I could take as I got weaker and dizzier with them all. I have been to close to 11 neurologists. All of whom tell me to take vitamin c or d and others. All the drs pretty much just send me somewhere else. I have been doing physical therapy for 15 months now.l supppsrd to be helping my ban e. It does some. I e had to take early retirement now hsvd applied for disability. I’m s nursing home administrator and it’s killing me not to be working! I love my job. I have been reading up on the spinal Decompression for Stenosis and neuropathy? I would be interested in someone’s opinion if they have tried this! Thank you!
What were your symptoms? I find it very counterintuitive that a nerve compression at that level would manifest in one foot, then climb my leg before starting in the other foot. Groping for a way to understand this.
