Hey guys,

As an undiagnosed person who still keeps thinking of the reasons of all the numbness and tingling things I had few questions.
I have had a pain in a spot in my back(middle, left side of the spine, and only a spot) for such a long time, like few years.
And I had almost forgotten all about it. Few days ago, I realized that this could be the whole reason of the numbness in the little finger of my left hand, which spreads all over my hand, the pins and needles in hands and legs, the strange electricity current like feeling in my legs(specially right leg),and my new symptom, which is like you are wearing socks or in a special way something is banding somwhere around your knee!!! and the abnormal VEP.

Could it be due to a disc, or a bone which is pinching a nerve. After the normal MRI, I am really trying not to think about it, but after a few minutes walk my legs are like the socks thing, or I feel sort of pulse in them...
Anyone knows these symptoms? Or could I realte it to the disc thing? Or a pressure on a nerve??
Sorry, it's a long text...
Thanks for your presence out there, and...

neda, please check out the spinal disorder board for symptoms like yours. My thing started with burning pain in left ring finger, so far, EMG revealed abnormal c-7 nerve route. (which is between the shoulder, and controls ulnar nerve that go to ring and pinky fingers) I"ve had the electric shock into the hands when I cough, and pins and needles in finger-tips. we're all in this together... good luck!
