Hello, I have been suffering with intense pain for about 18 months now , started with numbness and pins and needles a year before. I have lumbar stenosis and facet joint probs which started after a fall in 2015. Id been coping pretty well , then this pain started , and it has got much much worse. I constantly feel my bowels arent empty , urination is hard to start , and sitting is completely impossible ! this last week or two I have increased sciatica right to the soles of my feet . Basically from my bottom down im in agony . I am going to see doc ,to see if he will get some tests done for PN, because im at my wits end now .

Hi Asher,

Sounds pretty miserable. I hope your doctor will be able to help you figure this out and come up with a diagnosis and that you can get the right treatment. When is your appointment? Sometimes it can seem like forever while you are waiting.
