Dr Coric is quite highly regarded as an ADR surgeon, and I can vouch for him being easy to talk to and whatnot. Unfortunately, he can't help me b/c of the legal issue, and I'm not comfortable getting a Prodisc (that's the control in the study).
Good luck to you. I'm just 3 yrs older than you so I know how much this whole **** sucks at this age. You go to PT/clinic and most people are over 50 or so.
My whole life has basically been put on hold - I'm single and have more student and personal debt than most people have for a mortgage. I do, however, have quite a life and profession to return to WHEN I'm better.
