When I see the word "mild" it makes me think of my MRI many years ago. My stenosis (squeezing off of the spinal cord) became severe over the years and threatened to cause paralysis therefore I had fusion surgery of the C-5-6-7 vertebra. I'm doing much better now two years post op.
From the looks of your report my guess is that surgery will not be prescribed for you. Physical therapy and/or drug treatment may be suggested.
The other main factor is your symptoms. Mild status can cause great pain in some while others with larger herniations of disks feel little or nothing from them.
