A spinal tap indicated i was low in b12 when that happened to me in 1999. Easily fixed with b12 injections; you are probable pernicous anemic in b12 a will rely on shots at least once month after walking again usually by the second shot at most. I was walking 2 hours after the first injection after a 3 day paralysis only of the legs from hips down. There are other tests to show the b12 anemia. Hope you are hopping around again soon!!
