Severe spinal stenosis: Would you do surgery?

I have spinal stenosis throughout my entire spine. 2 years ago I could barely make a bed or bend over to do laundry. Most of the pain was in my left lower back. Radio Frequency Ablation was recommended. I have had my cervical, lumbar and sacral spine areas ablated and it has been life changing. The pain is gone and I have resumed a normal lifestyle even exercising daily. This procedure lasts 1-3 years and may need to be repeated as the nerves grow back. I also found an excellent Physical Therapist that uses postural restoration exercises to improve poster and correct a downward tipped pelvis that many women have. This was highly effective in reducing pain as well. Best wishes in finding relief.

Very happy for you that you had a successful ablation that leaves you pain free! Thank you for sharing.
Would you share where you had this procedure and who did it?
