I've gotten mixed suggestions from doctors. 2/3 I've seen say i'll need to have the surgeries within the next 5 years. The last one said that if PT didn't work (it didn't, it made it worse) I would need to get the surgery before the pain got too bad that I wouldn't be able to take care of my daughter. Since it is getting to that point and my symptoms continue to get worse I am having the first side done later this summer.

The one thing all 3 agreed on was that the symptoms, not the test results, should be the motivating factor in any decisions about surgery.
