I plan to just get the fragment removed since cost will be 0.

After this year if I have problems cost will be in the thousands

I saw a, different surgeon yesterday that look at the images. He said the fragment in the canal is,huge and on the nerves but if my pain is,not bad and I’m ok it can be monitored. Up to me.

Also said he does not go by the size of object on MRI but based on how I feel right now and not what if or what may or may not happen later. Said be saw many in similar situations. Said My pain level may remain the same, who knows. The,stated to the nerves may learn to adapt like they are now regardless of the huge fragment on them.

He explain why vs disectonmy. Look at old,MRI also and said Valente had right approach and,bad nothing to do with the herination. said the disk was in weakened state like now and would most likely happen again and he would not do the disectonmy but someone else can if I choose that option.
