Any military members here who have had ADR? I am scheduled to see my PCM about a medical board and I want to know if they support getting an artificial disk instead of fusion.

I don't know if you have Tricare but I recall one vet who was persuasive enough to get an ADR.
Wishing you luck! Allan P.S. I just purchased Laurie Todd's book and am impressed. It's about how to fight insurance companies and (hopefully!) win.
