I'm sure you'll get lots opinions on this but relatively few facts.
I assume you are absolutely, positively sure your bladder and rectal sphincters work- that is a different set of rules.
Pain is one issue, weakness is another. Pain resolution with or without surgery is about the same (70%) at seven years after the event, but surgery gets there sooner.
Weakness resolution is more time dependent. The best resolution is surgery within 30 days of onset, results are diminished after 90 days. Take your time and read this article. It is a professional journal, but you can figure out the important info-http://www.jbjs.org.uk/cgi/reprint/84-B/7/1040.pdf-
There is overwhelming evidence that chiropractic is no better than jelly beans for this condition.
(opinion part) I would have had my surgery yesterday.
Best of luck
