i have been diagnosed with one, and know that there are two cures: cortisone injections and surgery ...
which works better? does either really 'cure' it? how long am i out of commission with surgery?

Cortisone didn't work for me.
I had surgery a few months ago.
Was actually only off work 1 week.
Doc wanted me to take more time; but with a somewhat cushy desk job-I did fine.
SO far I have traded in 1 pain for a few numb toes and maybe a 50% decrease in pain. I was hoping results would be better. We shall see in time.

pain isn't really my problem, altho' it does hurt if i wear any but one of my current shoes (25 pairs and counting) ..
it's the swelling -- did that go down?
thanks for answering :)
