Default Legs

Hi Judy thank you for replying to my question.
My legs have only recently started to get pins and needles. I will be seeing my GP soon so hopefully she can shine some more light on the report.
Thank you again
Regards
Christine

Christine do you need a referral to see a specialist? If so have your gp give you one for a spine surgeon or neurosurgeon. I know there is an excellent chance the arm and hand numbness and pain is coming from your neck. I'm not sure the gp can diagnose this. I'm just not sure if the leg pain must be from your lumbar spine or elsewhere. Good luck and let us know what happens.
Judy

You said you had the original MRI in 2008? Maybe things were OK then but now things have changed. You should be worked up again and probably have a new MRI.

Hi Maria, I've asked my GP a few months after the MRI if she had any news about it and she just said"if there was something wrong they would have heard from a consultant. I left it at that. I visited a stand in doctor as mine was away and she found the MRI from 2008. It's the only MRI I've had. I'm seeing my GP tomorrow so hopefully will know more. Thank you for your replys.
