Thank you Amanda; this actually was acute pain; sudden all down my leg with total lack of feeling so I did at least expect him to examine my back and maybe x ray to see if it was a disc problem. It was something I have never experienced before. When i lost feeling in my arms last year I was sent for an MRI but that was by my GP. It showed two herniated discs. I can't get an appointment with my GP Until next Monday. I rang for one today at 8 am and they didn't ring me back until 6.45 pm after surgery closed. I'm seeing him next week and asking for a complete review of medication and what's going on, an MRI or at least x ray on my spine and referral to a spine specialist.
