What Causes Prickling Pain And Heaviness In Legs?
I have been battling tremors, needle prickling pain, and heaviness in my legs for almost a year now. I have been tested for MS, Lupus, and Parkinson only to be told I am depressed and stressed. I assure you I am neither and refuse to go back to my doctor.

hi,
as mentioned by you, it looks more of the lumbar disc degenerative pathogy. As due to the pinch of the nerve the functions of the sensory nerve gets disturbed and leads to abnormal sensation. Taking up and MRI of the lumbar spine will reveal it's pathogy. Also, getting and NCV study done will help in differential diagnosis and can be looked further.
based on the Neurological findings and assessment along with MRI and NCV the next rehabilitation plan will be implement.
99% cases recover soon if followed with a combination of medicine and physical therapy.
With the grace of God I wish you a long life without any medical issues.
Regards.
