Diagnosed Facet Syndrome, Takes Naprosyn And Tylenol, Difficult With Movements. Surgery?
My sister-in-law has been diagnosed with facet syndrome but was told she was not a surgical candidate. She states she is in pain most of the time. She takes naprosyn and tylenol but states they don't help her pain very much. At what point does surgery become an option? She has a lot of difficulty with various movements such as twisting from one side to another.
