Curious!!
About what may happen to me ; if should go for lumber spinal stenosis surgery as the only option for me .
In brief. I have been suffering from a severe back pain since two and a half years ago.
I was diagnosed with lumber spinal stenosis (L4 and 5)
I have done two infiltration ( injection of steroid into my vertebrate where i feel the pains ) which did not bring the expected result .
Am really going through a big problem of making up my mind to go for the surgery due to how delicate tempering with spinal is .
The surgery is scheduled for month of October 2024.
The closer I approach the date ; the more i be nerverous
The idea of managing the pain is no more working for me .
The pain started with the left leg two years ago and now it's the right leg .
The recent IMR scan results shows .the L4 or L 5 are now affected .
My GP warns that it might eventually leads to paralysis if I don't make up my mind to go for surgery. .
I would like to know if there someone that his or her situation is similar to that of mine . Thanks everyone.
