No. But my husband has. His hand and foot are numb. We are hoping surgery helps but from reading the posts here most often surgery makes things worse. I am so sorry you're struggling. Do you regret having
surgery?

I've had 3 back surgeries. I regret the second one and the Dr I chose. Apparently my foot drop came from pressure around my knee from the position he put me in for the surgery. It's a very tough thing to deal with!
