I had the surgery you are talking about four years ago. Problems started again about a year ago. I just had Minute Man Procedure that I thought was a miracle cure for about two weeks and then things started heading South again. I have a lot of pain when walking and severe balance issues. The Dr. that did the Minute Man procedure is recommending PT and see what that does and then he might have to go back in a do another spot. It is all very confusing and time-consuming. At least the Minute Man procedure is very non-invasive with only one small cut that is done in a surgery center rather than a hospital.
