Diagnosed With Fibromyalgia, Lipoma, Stenosis In Hip. Degenerative Disc Disease In Neck, Hypothyroidism. Back Weak, Burning. Spinal Stenosis?
hello.... I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, lipoma, stenosis in my left hip, degenerative disc disease in my neck and bi lateral carpel tunnel. I also have hypothyroidism and sleep apnea. when I walk for more than 5 minutes without something to lean on my legs get very heavy to the point where they will shake, my lower back up to the middle of my back gets weak and burning and extremely sore and lately my neck has the same burning painful feel to it all the time. could this have advanced to spinal stenosis.
I have studied your case. Yes your symptoms suggest spinal stenosis, and I will advise to do MRI spine and hip.
You may need decompression in severe case . Meanwhile lifestyle modification ,medication,exercise and physiotherapy will help .
Start neurotropic which will help in carpal tunnel also.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
