No diagnosis
If you are over 45 years of age, I would imagine it is stenosis. Sometines the extent of this is difficult to see even on MRI. I ended up having multiple minimally invasive surgeries to clean out this stenosis. Fortunately I had very good results. Hope you find the right surgeon and make the prudent decision.
