Hello @upnort, Welcome to Connect. There is another discussion on myelopathy that I think you might find more helpful. I'm tagging our moderator @lisalucier to see if we should move your post to the following discussion where you can meet other members sharing your symptoms and learn what they have found that helps.

Have you tried any anti-inflammatory supplements like turmeric or has your doctor given you any suggestions?

I am more than willing to try turmeric as well as other
anitinflammatories. My leg numbness is progressively getting worse by the
weeks. My case seems to be unusual (diagnosed a year and half ago) in the
fact that I do not experience pain - only extreme numbness of my lower
exttemities. My once active lifestyle has been put on hold until I find
something that will help alleviate or at least minimize the this extreme
numbness. I am reluctant to go on another prescribed medication (CellCept
is what my neurologist wants me to go on next) as the side effects continue
to take their toll on my body. In addition to the turmeric, are there
other possible solutions dealing with my numbness? Thanks.
