John,

Wow! That's a long time to have endured those symptoms. Welcome, you'll find a lot experience and willingness to help here.

Loss of motor control is ALARMING and has happened to me three times. Aside from frightening, its down right frustrating to not be able to comb your own hair or zip up your fly.

When you get the results of your MRI you should know exactly what you're up against. Some people get long term relief from the ESI's. If you end up having them, hopefully you'll be one of the lucky ones.

Good luck, Jeff
