I would do some homework here, I think you'll find that back surgery is nonsense. The scientists know more than the doctors and most surgery isn't based on experimental data but trial and error. Scientific American had a good article about it about 15 years ago when I hurt my back.

That is why I'm trying the PT, may try Yoga & a Chiropractor as well, as I really don't want to be cut open any more, but the movement is getting less & pain is growing....

I was mowing yard, collecting deposit bottles, raking, weeding, what ever I could do to earn money for my bike stuff. I may still have a H&F catalog in a box somewhere... I still have some of my old stuff....
