Hi just a little note to introduce myself! I've been a member for several years but life got in the mix & I totally forgot about this platform..My name is Julie Ann & I'm from Stoke-on-Trent Staffordshire. I have kyphosis scoliosis Adhesive arachnoiditis osteoarthritis & Emphysema so I'm quite a weird dude! Lol 😆
I had spinal surgeries from the age of 9-15 They used a contrast in my spinal cord that is as strong as yacht varnish remover & they tilted me upside down so it obviously went into my cranial nerves as well as lumbar nerves plus!
I have limited mobility using an electric wheelchair or crutches on a better day. I just wondered if anyone here has AA & if it deadening your leg as to spill hot tea on it & not feel it& it being useless & then coming back to life occasionally? I have to drag my leg & it pulls on my asymmetrical hip causing intense "white" pain?
I researched a long time ago so have forgotten a lot of the symptoms!
