I too have a degenerative spinal stenosis disease. Sorry to say it doesn't usually get any easier. Like Skeezyks said it doesn't usually get any better. I have had epidural steroid shots that have provided some temporary relief. I always comes back though. I was diagnosed at a very young age. I try to avoid medication for it. I think I'm on enough already. Exercise and proper lifting are also important as Skeezyks also advised. Hang in there!
