Hey Jiro,

I had lumbar ADR about 2 months ago in Florida. My insurance carrier approved it and then retroactively denied payments after I had the surgery. You can read my full story over in the ADR surgical outcome section of the forum, or click here if you like:

Since you're in Tennessee, I think the Texas Back Institute is probably closer than any doctor I could recommend down here. Try giving them a call and ask for Dr. Blumenthal. They will consult with you by phone and email if you send them copies of your records.

Best of luck buddy!
