Femoral Nerve Compression Anybody?

posted 1st Oct '07
I've had problems with femoral nerve compression since my 1st trimester. I am now 32 weeks and it is getting worse. Probably the worst thing is that it happens so sporadically. I never know when it's going to happen (sometimes it wakes me in the middle of the night!) My right leg is going numb and sometimes it feels as though it's going to give out. I also have pain in the lower right quadrant of the pelvis, it's so intense I want to double-over in pain. Does anybody else have this problem? What are you doing about it if you do? My doc recommended a maternity belt/support. I've been doing research on the internet and have found the femoral nerve originates in L-2, L-3, and L-4 of the spine. I have 3 disc buldges at L-3, L-4, and L-5. I think this is were my problem stems from. Anyone else have back problems and having this type of nerve compression? Thanks for taking the time to read my situation!
