Cheryl, I am so sorry your fusion failed. I have been doing my research for a few weeks now. ADR seems to have come quite a ways considering how many devices I have to research. Of course, the research is over my head but I do hope to be absorbing the "nuts and bolts" of it.
Doc, thank you for the link. I just went onto the site and sent a note with my MRI I had done last Wednesday. Dr. B has already responded with his surgical opinion. I am very concerned about follow-up care and contact.
