re Dian'e's decision
I'm glad she's making her own decision as I don't have anything valid to offer except I waited 7 years from point of diagnosis on L5S1 to point of surgery which was open (not considered microdiscectomy at the time) and it was very successful. 2nd surgery (percuteaneous on L4) I thought would go well and I only waited 9 months from point of symptoms to point of surgery and it failed miserably..
One can never know, take the best most educated leap of faith that you can and go with it~ and hope and pray the results are going to be what you want them to be!
Good luck to Diane and hope her surgery will be one of the ones that yields the most excellent of results!
BTW, probably only too true re the failed results mostly posting at spine forums except for the successes that come back to post and tell us how great life is or what other health probs/surgeries other than spine are being experienced!!!
