I'm contemplating surgery with Dr. F. I have 8 mm cyst to the right of s2. It is getting worse. Now having tingling down both legs into feet and pain is going up the back as well. I'm wondering about scar tissue returning post op after two or three years. Does anyone know if it returns to as bad as before surgery?

I can believe it! Congratulations on connecting with the most experienced specialist in the WORLD when it come to Tarlov Cysts. Dr. Feigenbaum (and Debbie West and team) restored my life on November 30, 2010. And for those others who are being told that Tarlov cysts are "incidental", "benign", or "asymptomatic", remember that it was not long ago that most folks thought the earth was flat! (some still do...)

Do you have any problems with scar tissue. How difficult was your recovery. Can you do most activities. So many questions and fears. I have surgery scheduled for dec 18 2013

I had one neorologist say yes they can cause issues, and wrote me scripts for nerve pain meds, which help somewhat. I look forward to reading many post here, and please forgive me if I ask too many questions, or if I ask questions that have been asnwered as I am new here, and still finding my way about, and how to use this site.
My neurologist after 4 MRI'S ref. me to a neurosurgeon that specializes in the procedure.
They are incidental findings they find them when looking for some other cause of pain and numbness.
I just had surgery on Mar. 6 and the pain I had off and on for 17 yrs. has gone. My legs are really achey at times but I'm just 6 weeks post op.
