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.

👍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.

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.

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?
