Maria,

I think what you said was right, the stenosis. Once again all of these things were considered mild (not by me but by my doc).

Wed is the MRI, we will see what happens then.

Thanks again everyone.

Default No diagnosis

If you are over 45 years of age, I would imagine it is stenosis. Sometines the extent of this is difficult to see even on MRI. I ended up having multiple minimally invasive surgeries to clean out this stenosis. Fortunately I had very good results. Hope you find the right surgeon and make the prudent decision.
