Does Anyone Get Leg Failure Now And Then?
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

On occasion (at least once a day) my right leg (usually) stops being "alive". It happened once that both did and I fell. Thankfully, I was in my bedroom when that happened. I always worry that it will happen on stairs or escalator.

This could be stenosis or pinched/irritated nerve roots. I'd see a doc before a real bad fall happens

Yes I’ve had this issue ever since I had a cervical fusion due to a degenerative disc disease.

I’ve been thru two disc surgeries in 10 years. I’ve constantly have left leg collapse Left drop foot. Numbness tingling and pain

I’ve been in hospitals and rehabilitation centers to try and get pain management and therapies to try to relearn to walk.
