I've just gotten my MRI results and I'm feeling anxious about what it all means. It says there's a diffuse disc bulge at L4-L5 causing thecal sac indentation and compression of both existing nerve roots. Also, at L5-S1, it mentions a similar disc bulge with indentation and nerve compression including bilateral neural foramina. I'm worried about what kind of symptoms or issues this could lead to. Could you explain what this might mean for my health and what steps I should take next?

I've been dealing with a neurofibroma NF1 for the past 7 years and it's been quite tough. I've consulted several doctors and they all keep saying that surgery is the only option. I'm really considering going through with facial surgery now, but I'm anxious about it. Are there really no other treatments or recent developments that might help before I decide to go under the knife?
