@pkh3381 Thank you so much for your reply.

I have to admit that my legs are in so much pain, my hamstrings, and my tibialis that if a Dr. tells me today let's do a surgery i will jump on it real quick. I'm not able to drive and it is painful to try to move around and do things, I do take walks but very slowly and the pain is there and it feels like it wants to cramp up.

Thanks again

Hello,
I can relate to spine issues and cramping. I had a L4/5 Laminectomy /fusion and a C4-7 ACDF. My neck is OK, but my back still hurts badly after many years.
Before the surgery I went to a pain doc who gave me too many spinal injections. That or the surgery caused Arachnoiditis! Look it up! It's not as rare as they claim. Mine comes and goes but spasms are daily. PLEASE beware of this before going for epidurals or any spinal injections!!! Best of luck. Be safe.
