Cervical stenosis and MS

Just got my MRI results and, though I have no new lesions, I have a progression of cervical stenosis and narrowing of the spinal column (not sure that's the absolute correct terminology). From what I've read, cervical stenosis and MS often go hand in hand, though they're not sure how they're related (though it seems like studies indicate that the MS can cause the stenosis). Anyone else hear of this or experience it? (Also, is there a way to add hashtags or are they automatically generated?)

@Chrissywhatidid , do you use any mobility aids? I can see their use potentially putting undue pressure on your frame.......

Hello I've just read your post. 'Stenosis' rings a bell with me. After an MRI I was told I had a narrowing of the spinal column - not sure about terminology either. I have sciatic pain on my right back/leg side - particularly in mornings. I know there are stretches - I do these - but I think there is an operation/procedure to widen the column. My pain is not going away - maybe with PPMS I should expect it - but I'm going to try my GP to see if it could be good for me.
