Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
hello
I believe evaluation with a neurologist would be very helpful.I would advise not to feel inconfident and shaky as it is manageable with physical therapy, electric muscle nerve stimulator and some medicines like methycoblamine,gabapentin.Take help of a walking stick for more steadiness on standing or walk.
Wear a lumbosacral brace during daytime and avoid bending lifting objects from ground .till you get a review
I find this answer helpful
