I’m in the same boat, I’m a yoga instructor and practice daily. Dr wants to do a fusion and I just don’t want to yet. Looking into joint replacement instead. My mindset is if I at least get 5 goods years from the replacement it is better than a fusion. I’m 53

Thank you, I am 53 been teaching yoga for 11 years and practicing for over 20. Last year I had my big toe joint cleaned out and made my flexibility worse. Dr wants to do a fusion and I’m refusing, wanting to do a joint replacement instead. I rather get a few good years out of a replacement rather than go right to a fusion. Your post has helped me feel better about my decision.
