I agree to stay away from RL. You might also check out Dr Bierstadt in Germany at Oz. I met him personally when he was marketing in the US, but we didn't click the way I did with Clavel.
Due to my spondy at L4-5, Clavel also recommended hybrid for me, but in reverse, ie fusion L4-5, ADR L5S1. I hadn't seen that construction and wasn't ready to go for it. Plus, I'm not sure M6 is best for lumber yet. I also heard good things about Activ L. I am hoping that lumbar ADRs progress at a rate faster than I get worse, but at my current leg pain levels, not sure I can wait. Luckily I have torn meniscus to distract me right now along with a bicep tear! getting old is bad.
