Confused Acdf c5/c6 ???

I need some pretty quick advice,
I only had trouble sleeping, some numbness in my left hand, but mainly just pain while I am sleeping.
Turns out its a small herniated disk on the right side.
The neurosurgeon said I was not a candidate for surgery but... the spine Dr. said that surgery is the only thing that will make my neck better... I dont know who to believe?

I need to do the surgery this Friday if I am ever going to be able to do it EVER, cause of money and time off of work. But if the pain is going to be worse than it is now I surely dont want to do it.

So far all I had 5 pain injections and none of them have worked. Epidurals and MBB & RFA.

Please vote for what I should do:

yes surgery?
no surgery?

Thank you.
Joann
