Hello, Kevin: The K-list has moved.. you will find the new K-list at
http://www.list-server.net/kundalini/sub.shtml
I have forwarded your post onto the new posting address.
Reading your post, what comes to me is that problems in the legs are often associated with issues of not moving forward in your life. It is no coincidence, I think, that it came on, apparently one month after you stopped going to be taught by your Sensei.
I'm not an MD, but my advice is to postpone the surgery and go speak to your sensei about what is hapenning with your legs. Your girlfrend feels a bond between you and he.. and this is not uncommon, if he is good.. and if you swore any kind of oath of loyalty to be his student, the leg pains might be your unconscious trying to make you keep your promise. The Dragon symbols in Martial arts are symbols of Kundalini. The path is smoother with a guide. Go talk to your Sensei.

>I have developed some symptoms that may be related....I dont know...
>About eight months ago I was diagnosed with a recurring, repetitive
>stress disorder in my lower legs. Specifically the disorder is called
>Exertion Compartment Syndrome. Basically, some sort of stress or injury
>has cause the fascia around my anterior compartment in my calves to lose
>elasticity, thus when I walk too much or engage in exercise with my
>legs, I get severe cramping in the outside, front part of my lower legs.
>This leads to numbness and a lack of motor control in my feet. I am
>slated to have surgery to correct this, the technique requires that the
>surgeon cut the offending muscle sheath to give more room to the larger
>muscles underneath. Is this condition a symptom of imbalance in my
>"energy"? I dont know. It came about out of nowhere and has me
>frustrated and out of shape.

>That brings us to right know! Last night I was looking for information
>on Glenn Morris' book, Path Notes of an American Ninja Master (a book
>that has information on Kundalini as well) I had no prior knowledge of
>Kundalini, in fact I had never heard of it! I found a link to some
>Kundalini sites and started to browse, learning more and more about this
>force. After I went to bed, I fell asleep rather quickly, I had planned
>to stay awake awhile and try to bring about the "smallness" feeling and
>explore it a little. Last night I dreamed (I think I was dreaming) that
>I was lying in bed and energy was coursing up and down my spine. It was
>rising and rising and then, out of fear, I put a stop to it by thinking
>for it to go away. (must have been a dream---I was exercising dream
>control) Funny thing is, I woke up (I think) and I, for no good reason,
>rolled over in my bed and moved my knees out, away from my body and
>brought my heels up to my bum. A "frog" stretch, we used to call it.
>Weird. I also dreamed of my Sensai, I cant remember what we were doing
>though. Just sitting there. I tried to explore these feelings this
>morning but couldnt. Everything was normal. I am curious if all these
>things are related to Kundalini. I am going to call my Sensai and tell
>him about it. My girlfriend thinks that him and I are "connected" in
>some way.....I guess time will tell!
>
>Any opinions, comments ideas or strategies that any body out there can
>send me would be greatly appreciated!
>Even if you write just to tell me that I'm way of base and reading too
>much into too little, at least I'll know!
