Dr. Panwar, I am unable to find the disc from my MRI from 2014 due to retiring and moving a short while ago. I was told at the time that I had pinched nerves at two levels in my lower back and a diagnosis of spinal stenosis. The pain that I have radiates from my lower back to the front of my knee on the left side. I am unable to stand for any longer than 5 minutes without needing to sit down.
