Oh, I have a condition called spinal stenosis. It's compression in the discs that traps nerve endings.
It went undiagnosed for about 10yrs until 2014... and because the condition can be made worse if you are overweight... I had 10yrs of doctors ignoring the symptoms and telling me to lose weight... even after I lost weight... to lose weight.
I finally had a doctor who listened and understood rather than tried to shuffle me out the door as quickly as possible without doing either.
