Vicky,
Thanks for the post. I see Nick is no longer an option, he did a surgery on a friend of mine also. I just got MRI results last week and is shows several levels of DDD, however it clearly shows a bulge in L4-L5 and my surgeon wants to go in and trim it. He did a 2 level ADR on my neck in 2007 and the results were great, part of a study. He is not in a hurry to do Lumbar surgery as it is more tricky and the results are less successful than Cervical. He is convinced from the film that a little trimming will relieve my pain and I am inclined to go that route.
Who would you go with now that Dr Boeree is out of the question?
