Hi all. It's been a while since i last posted. Here is what i have been thru before i get to the current problem.

I have been thru 6 spine surgeries on the cerival and lurabar areas. I have instrumentation in the cervical/thoracic region and instrumentation in the lurabar area as well. Plus i have had a spinal cord stimulator implanted in my back.

Also, i have had surgery on my left leg for a blood clot. And i had surgery last year for pancreatic cancer which required removing the tail of the pancreas and spleen. Luckily the results came back that it was pre-malignant.

I also have one kidney-congenital. And the kidney that i do have is functioning at 30% due to my diabetes.

The current problem, i have stenosis in the cervical region with radiating pain mainly to the left extremity- shoulder area.

But, i also have stenosis in the lurabar area as well. I do have nurabness in the left leg from the knee down which has been there since surgery was done on leg for the bloot clot. But more recently, i have been noticing a problem with mainly the left foot. The only way i can describe it is that it feels like the foot is turning hard like a rock. It seems to subside after i lie down for a bit. I did have an emg done a few years back and at least the nurabness that i am feeling is due to the stenosis in my lurabar area and not a result of the diabetes.

Has anyone experienced symtoms in the foot that feels hard like a rock? Can it be related to the stenosis in the lurabar area? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
