Has anyone experienced numbness and tinging in their legs? My left leg is extremey numb lower down and ankle and I have fallen twice at work, gone way down to floor. Scary! I saw Dr. lenke last Jul and haev surgery scheduled next July - gosh, not sure what shape I'll be in by then. Terrible pain most of the time. Not sleeping too well. And, now that I can't walk withiout falling down - waht's next????::eek:

Wow Rita,

The easiest thing you can do right now is to go to a warm water therapy pool. Find a good masseuse, that's what I did and it helped.

I had mind blowing sciatica years ago and cured it swimming in the ocean. I swam all day long. You are about as far from any ocean as anyone could be, that's why I mentioned the pool.

Take it slow, try not to fall down.
