ACK!!!! I am SO sorry!
I am kind of on the path you are on. No surgeries ... yet. I had an MRI and consultation last year but did not like the "only" surgery option. I will wait until I cannot function until I have surgery. I'm still halfway functional. 
Tingling down the arm, itching palm, pain in the neck and shoulder.
Sometimes dropping things.
Migraines.
Really have to stay off the computer (although the ergonomic keyboard and the new chair have helped, not to mention chiropractic, massage and exercise).
I hear you!
And I feel for you.
Take care.
