stenosis versus valve or leaflet problem?

My only symptom is that my left leg is pretty useless (which means the right one has also atrophied from lack of use). This was part of a process that started 10 years ago.

But twice in the last few years, for a minute or two, I could walk normally -- perfect balance, swinging my arms, the whole ball of wax. And as suddenly as it started, it went away.

Has anyone who has been liberated had a similar experience prior to their procedure?

If so, did you have any stenosis or was it just an intermittent problem caused by a valve or leaflet? And how did your doctor find and treat that problem?
