Hi Skylar,
I am a fused , really fused person so cannot help you with your question.
I do have that burning, buzzing in my left foot. I have had an EMG and it turns out i do have a nerve damaged in my foot, but one that shouldn't effect the bottom of my foot. They are just practicing medicine and sometimes more than others.
I have had terrible pain in my legs after a fusion surgery last year., One of the screws was pulling out and had the sciatic nerve with it. I was in a wheelchair for 6 weeks waiting for surgery to remove the instrumentation. No fun at all.
Now probably because of the nerve being squished for 6 weeks has permanent damage. I have leg weakness big time. But i am wondering why you think it is not the sciatic nerve? Sounds to me like it could be. But i don't know too much. Just my own experiences.
Have you tried searching on this forum for ADR posts from the past. Might give you some insight.
I just wanted to post so you didn't feel so alone.
good luck
judy
