Default To have surgery or not to have surgery!!

I herniated disc at L-5 S-1 level. I have radicupathy and my legs and toes are numb. I never was educated on the spinal nerves on the body that if your nerves are impinged after 6 months you should have surgery. It has been 2 years after my herniated disc. I have been in pain for 2 years i cannot go through the day without pain pills. 2 years ago i had 4 cars and i was 1 semester away from transfering to UC school i also had great credit. 2 years later i still am a semester away from going to uc school i had to sell 3 of my cars, my credit is ruined and Im near homeless. My question is since its been 2 years will surgery help me get the numbness off of my feet and will i ever be able to move like i was befoRE. since i have waited long to have surgery will it be a waste to have surgery?
