prolapsed disc

Have recently had a lot of back pain with muscles in spasm and the doc got me MRI'd pretty quickly, the results of which show a bulging of the disc. However, am now pain free and she said that it has probably popped back in, as a lot do. Anyone any experience of this at all? Doc said that if it kept recurring she could refer me to a spinal-neuro surgeon for his opinion and that the disc could be removed/replaced. Instinct says stay away from this where at all possible! Anybody had this and now flying? Am rather concerned with the long term picture.
