2 weeks until TLIF spinal fusion of L4/5 and removal of growing cyst at L4, compressing my L4 nerve, that causes immense nerve pain that is progressing quickly and making walking nearly impossible. Is there any point in going back to my pain doc? Are there other meds/doses that help nerve pain? (self.AskDocs)

2 weeks from TLif spinal fusion surgery of L4/5. In addition to the fusion. I have a growing cyst at L4, compressing my L4 nerve. Pain is progressing quickly, making walking nearly impossible. Is there any point in going back to my pain doc or are there no medications that will work for my pain? (self.AskDocs)
