[QUOTE="Ryhia, post: 2074480, member: 503862"] [LEFT][FONT=Open Sans][COLOR=rgb(44, 44, 44)] I was offered an op for my stenosis three/four years ago; I was referred for numbness in my arms and the ground was coming up to meet me when I was walking. During the consultation it was found I could not walk in a straight line. Doc just laughed when I was trying to blame the fact that I had heels on that day. Rather than the op I opted for physio which helped a great deal and loosened things up. I still don't walk in straight lines but I don't really get pain either unless I have stressed my neck. The offer of the op has remained on the table so your operation is of great interest to me. I hope I am able to ask bearing in mind this is a diabetes forum, how your op went? Did they fuse your spine? And are you satisfied with the results? Also could the tingling you are feeling be related to nerves that have been previously crushed only just coming back to feeling? [/COLOR][/FONT][/LEFT] That was why I initiated this thread as I was unsure if it was something I was missing in my diet or if it is my neck. I have experienced numbness in my fingers if my neck has been irritated but not in the same way. That said, since my diabetes diagnosis in Feb, I can't keep away from this forum. I am on my laptop a few hours a day which causes me to look down at lot. I don't want to miss coming to this forum as I look upon it as a life line if not a life saver I would be so depressed being diabetic otherwise. I have reduced my liquid intake over the last few weeks because I became sensitive to decaf tea and coffee (ectopic heartbeat) so I will uplift it again to see if this makes a difference, if it doesn't, its probably a visit to the docs. Thanks for responding. [/QUOTE]
