I am and it’s awful. It started January 2024z. In 3 months my legs were completely taken over in pain which led to wheelchair. My MRI LOWER Lumber had herniated bottom disc. First neurosurgeon said my heavy legs had nothing to do with disc. Referred me to a neurologist who had no openings until August 2024. I was exhausted from so much pain and little sleep. I finally found a surgeon in a week and had surgery by the end of May. My heavy legs are better but the weak muscles and neuropathy are extreme in right leg where it all began. I can walk but slowly. Trying to walk and stretch each day. The surgery was all out of pocket because it is new technology that Medicare deems experimental. I see an orthopedic neurosurgeon in August. He can help me with nerve damage extent and hopefully speed up healing.
