I have lumbar spinal stenosis, so this affects my legs, but I too, have much the same symnptoms. Numbess in my legs and such. I was born with it, but like all my other medical stuff, it didn't show up until much later. Do you have a pain doc? He/she could give you injections for the sysmptoms. The stenosis, as far as I understand it, will never go away . But there are meds out there that can help with the pain and stiffness.
