Met with Dr Clavel and he really made me confident about this surgery and future outcome. He explained everything. Much more than stateside doctors I have been too. Will put up a blurb after surgery and thanks for all the thoughts! I am supposed to be first up in the morning. He said the three ADR would take about 2 hours depending on calcification and nerve root stenosis. Should be up and about 24 hours later!
