I've had the surgery I'm only 27, and the doctor told me you'll do the surgery on Friday by Monday you'll be back to work. It took me 4 weeks to be able to actually be mobile again. It was horrible and now I have a bit of pain but its a different pain its been 5 months and I thought it would get better but now I'm even worried. Surgery was a last resort I had all kinds of unsuccessful treatments for over 2 years before I finally caved and now I have another neuroma on my left foot. I've tried the injections and I was going to have another surgery but I'm dreading the recovery. But I must admit even though I'm in pain its not as bad as before the surgeries so long as I wear comfortable shoes and not over do it with the walking I'm in a bit of pain but its not soo severe so I dunno if I should get the surgery again. I just want it to be over :(
