Hi how are you doing? My question I have is back in march of 2015 I was diagnosed some damages to a few of my discs. The disc invovled are T11/12 andL3/4 ,L4/5and this is where things start to get bad around L5/S1. I know They said I have osteoarthritis and see some narrowing of the nerve root opening. With all that said over the last month I feelike there is so much more going on cuz I start to lose feeling on tha side of my face and check area. I have always had numb feeling in my legs but its to tha point to where I start to lose my balance and my feet seems to be cold all tha time have some numbnezs in tha middle of my spine mass migrines and on top of that when I stand up no matter weather I'm sitting or lying down I get so dizziness to the point of almost passing out. Not to metion my hips hurt they feel so out of place.I do have a mri scheduled for my back for the 7th of feb and for the surgeon on tbe 18 but I feel like I will not make it that far and .y question to you is do you think there is something else going on and should I continue to wait and risk my health or go to the er since I have a hubby who is constantly out of town for work and seven kids. Your input would be appreciated thank you and God bless!
