B2L,

What has your doctor advised as to, physical therapy, surgical options or anything else?

You are describing nerve damage/irritation brought on by a herniated disc pressing against the spinal cord. I've absolutely no medical expertise, just personal experience. The sooner the pressure issue is resolved, the better for the long term healing benefit to the irritated nerves. Two years is too long a period to wait for this relief when there are options.

I have to wonder at a doctor that has allowed this to continue. Have been under a doctor's care during this entire time? It's time to get this addressed and under control.

Please tell us more about your doctor's, their advise, any non-invasive remedies you have tried, etc. Do you live near L.A. or elsewhere? BTW, is this a worker's comp case? Surgery may very well be in your future and which one is another discussion but you first need to understand what is happening, why and so on. It doesn't appear too much has been explained to you!
