I feel your pain, cervical fusion in 2000, lumbar lamencetomy at 3-4-5 in 2004, and again in 2006. Dr. said it was only the 2nd case he had seen where the bone grew back into the spine. Unfortunately, you will have to live with some pain from now on. Surgery can eliminate the numbness and perhaps keep you out of a wheelchair.

Most GOOD Drs. will tell you surgery is the last option. Sometimes for stenoios they go in from the front, around your belly button. They have a lot of organs to move around, then put back in place.

Being a Chiefs fan I understand that chronic pain will be no big step for you. Remember, just wait till next year.
