I was diagnosed tarlov cysts s1-2,s2 2weeks ago after taking mri. I have burning pain on buttock, so I cant sit down over few minutes,and have sciatica both legs and foot. I take gaberpantin 200mg at night. NS asked me to increase dosage but I dont want to do it until I meet pain dr. MY NS said if you have a surgery it makes aggravate, you are going to have a greater problem and not able to go out. I am doing investigation about TC and learned there are several doctors nationwide including Dr. Frank feigenbaum. Im scared of this situation. If anyone hade surgery please share your story.
