      Lovely51 About 15 yrs ago I had bilateral numbess to legs. Went thru testing for MS which all was neg. The numbess eventually went away. I've been diagnosed with degenerative bone disease of the lumbar. I had numbess in both feet. Dr attributed it to my back. It also went away on its own. It's been very frustrating. Has your Dr done any x-rays of your back?

          @Shawna51 to be honest they didn't do much testing except MRI & checked my strength & balance. By the time I made it in to see MS Dr, took forever to get in to see him, my symptoms were gone

        @Lakeside5 yes, I I was in a roll over car accident in 2019 and that's when they found out that I have degenerative disc disease and it's getting worse every day.

      šŸ‘I do there and several different spots I'm thinking it's my nerves and I have degenerative disc disease and am possibly being looked at for lupus but I swell a lot and am numb on and off in several areas along with chronic pain. It can be pretty frustrating at times because I'm not diagnosed yet I don't take anything but over the counter pain meds.

        @Shawna51 I was diagnosed with degenerative disk disease too. I've had numbess in feet & in hands. Have you had numbess in those areas? Dr gave me Percocet for pain which I use as little as possible.

          @Lakeside5 yes I do and inflammation and swelling but haven't been diagnosed for other issues that relate to auto ammune disease, so it's hard to get prescriptions right. I've been through four idiot doctors since covid began and it's getting very frustrating.

      I don't. Just the pain but I have been told by more than one doctor that if your legs are affected, it's getting serious and needs attention.
