Steroid injections are mandatory as a first treatment before you are considered for surgery.
By the time I sought medical advice both my GP and the Consultant were agreed that my symptoms were such, steroids would not work, nevertheless I still had to have them and wait six weeks to see if they would alleviate my symptoms. They didn't, and it just added six weeks to my wait for the op.
I had my op in a private hospital with an NHS contract and I was sedated during the operation, which was done using local anaesthetic, so remember nothing about it. I drifted awake while the stitches were being put in.
