Don't see a neurosurgeon. All they want to do is cut. See a neurologist first and then get a referral to surgeon, if needed. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
That actually is a valid issue.
Many surgeons only want to cut, or only know how to help by cutting. I know a bunch who are ethical enough to try other things and/or tell you they can't help you if they think they can't. And a good neurosurgeon has a larger repertoire than a neurologist; but not necessarily the best judment on how to utilize it
It's your body, ask questions, make sure that you try physical therapy and and medicinal treatments before taking the surgery plunge. A lot of people who have surgery for pain, find that it doesn't help them a lot.
A lot of wusses probably have mild to moderate pain that they think is excruciating and can't live with without trying surgery.
Sometimes you are just too f*c*ed up to be fixed no matter what the treatment
