A 45-year-old pregnant lady presents with a collapse whilst out shopping. There were no witnessed abnormal movements

A 45-year-old pregnant lady presents with a collapse whilst out shopping. There were no witnessed abnormal movements, and she recovered quickly though she complained of dull abdominal pain which moved to her back. On review in A&E, she is clinically well, with no chest pain, breathlessness, or haemoptysis; however, she complained of ongoing back pain with associated bilateral leg weakness and numbness. A CT head was normal, and subsequent MRI head and spine was also normal. Her symptoms remained present, but she felt they were manageable, and she was keen to be discharged.

What would be the most appropriate next step of management?
