Hi
I have full sympathy with your suffering.But in your query you have not mentioned about any pain in limbs,weakness with numbness,any difficulty in walking/climbing stairs.
It's very important to asses your clinical condition before giving any advice regarding role of surgery.
Take care and i shall be glad to answer any further query.
