The title is wrong...he meant "sclerosis".

When you got the cat scan, did the doctor say anything about your numbness going away or explaining your symptoms in another way? If so, let us know what he/she said.

I'd get another appointment with your doctor -or- see another doctor. Numbness is not normal, no matter what the doctor says. So, the doctor should be able to explain what is happening, well enough to make you comfortable with the reason.

When was the last time you had a full physical, including the lab blood work?

Has your doctor looked into the possibility of diabetes?

OK so first you said scoliosis then you said Sclerosis witch one do you mean? Anyway I have scoliosis and it's back pain (your back is not straight) nothing about hand and body jerking. If the doctor said that your OK than you probably are. Remember to drink lots of water.
