I agree with the idea that if a doc can do a disco on one part he can certainly do it on the thoracic spine. THe hardest part is convincing someone to actually do it. Good luck with that.
I certainly was very ready for surgery when the offending discs were named. My horrible thoracic pain is gone . I had a serious complication , which i am working on , so you never do know what will happen .
