You are correct, many that had surgery and are doing well, do not often post on forums..
Pubmed had study yrs ago that approx 75% recovery nicely. But if it doesn't go well..it can become a problem.. My opinion, if you are feeling quite well and mostly normal use and activities, I would wait- when and if pain or symptoms show up, then look more into surgery. Imaging & surgical techniques usually improve, so later on better imaging /testing might clearly show exactly what is compressing things, if recent MRI /testing doesn't show clearly..

I am going to see the second surgeon in 2 weeks and see if he changed his view. It was a year ago when I saw him the last time. |
