Greetings Melissa,

Many of us have experienced the struggles of living with longterm chronic pain. Most of the members here have also battled insurance or care providers for ADR authorization. There are many topics relating to ADR approval and the appeals process. If you are still considering ADR, please check out the appeals process guidebook post. Don't settle for fusion if you truly believe ADR is right for you. Keep searching, calling, writing, and asking questions. Oftentimes your persistence pays off. If you are at wit's end and can no longer endure the pain, make certain you are comfortable with your decision. Having a peaceful and positive attitude regarding your upcoming surgery is essential.

Best wishes!
