Spinal Stenosis Symptoms
Help needed – What kind of doctor do you get when you have…?
What kind of doctor do you get when you have Spinal Stenosis, Osteoarthritis/ Degenerative Disc Disease??? See I have all these and I have been having problems for a long time now and it just seems like it is getting worse. They keep doing tests for other things or stating it is depression (in which I only had post brain surgery) or it is in my head. The neurologist states that. Every neuro states something different. I am in chronic pain & I am only 35. My MRI’s state that I have these things to the extent that a person of my age range shouldn’t. Plus there is something else there. So besides a neuro, what kind of doctor treats this? I cannot believe that with the symptoms I have they are not using this as the prime cause. It has to be with the symptoms I have. Just to name a few (I have so many more): Leg pain, Back Pain (up & low), neck, shoulder pain, numbness, weekness, etc…it goes on. I need to find the type of doctor who specializes in this area. Thank you.
Other doctors that may get involved in your care could include and orthopaedic surgeon to deal with the skeletal stuff . also a pain specialist, the pain specialist will be able to help with the pain obviously but as they are specialist in this and may be able to try other avenues that haven’t been tried.
Hope this helps
