I've been debating surgery aswell, as I've done 6 months trying to figure mine out conservatively every night, with minimal to no improvement.

I've researched into surgery same as you and it does seem a lot of people that have it never post on here again, so I'm assuming they were successes. I've also read that ATOS/VTOS surgeries are more successful than surgery for NTOS. Ive read some people (usually athletes) have made full recoveries super quick (with in like I month or two). That would be best case scenario as if I have it I would have to be back and fit within 2-3months. BUT same as you and others I'm scared of running the risk of having life long complications but I'm getting to the point now where I'm leaning towards surgery.

Best of luck in your decision but like everyone's told me do your research and find a good surgeon if you go ahead. Keep us posted.
