Wait, are we talking about magnetic resonance here? Because if so, that hasn't been done yet.

Well, I finally got my diagnosis back:
Bilateral cervicobrachial syndrome.
Bilateral lumbosacral syndrome with sciatica.
Could someone please help me make sense of what this actually means?
My doctor mentioned it’s some kind of nerve disorder, implying there isn't a cure and that I should brace myself for these episodes to happen more frequently. Interestingly, the first and most recent flare-ups were four months apart, and I haven't dealt with any issues in the meantime. He did prescribe strict bed rest, though he didn't give me any indication of how long I need to stay off my feet.

OB/GYN recommendations in a small town in the Midwest
in Women's Health ·
As far as I’m aware, you only have two gynecologists covered by Medicare in that small town in the Midwest—Dr. Kujundžić and Dr. Beljo. I’ve been seeing Dr. Kujundžić personally, and I have to say, I’m quite happy with him. He’s very approachable and always goes out of his way to accommodate my requests; he isn't brusque at all, and he never makes a fuss about handling referrals or prescriptions. That being said, since I haven't run into any major complications, I can't say for certain just how specialized his expertise is when it comes to anything beyond those standard routine checkups.

Thanks for getting back to me on this.
For those few minutes, my leg was completely numb—just totally dead. At first, we were all worried it might be a stroke, but the CT scan ruled that out. Then we thought it could be a heart issue, but everything came back fine there, too. So, looking at the facts, is it actually possible that this is coming from an issue with my spine?

Wouldn't it make sense to run a whole battery of tests—looking at both cardiac and neurological issues—to figure out what actually triggered that "attack"? I mean, losing all control over your left leg for about five minutes like that is serious, and we really need to uncover the underlying cause.

Can someone help me make sense of these EMG results:
The findings indicate chronic neural root lesions at S1 bilaterally, more pronounced on the right; also noted are bilateral L5, bilateral C8, Th 1 (more pronounced on the left), and bilateral C5-C7.
