If another disc goes, I will get another M6 if a jiffy. I would not go through that agony again!

Vicki,
I suffer from the same L5/S1 DDD and not considering between the M6 and Pro Disc. Dr. Bertagnoli recommends against M6 saying that if offers no control over the center of rotation (COR) and promotes accelerated deterioration of facet joints. Can you offer comment on these two different disc types and which surgeon you could recommend. I hear mixed reivews about Dr. Ritter-Lang but many good reviews about Dr. Pablo Clavel.
