Hi Fathub,

I haven't looked into any of the surgeons in Europe--unfortunately, there'd be no way for me to afford a trip or a surgery out of pocket like that. I'm a PhD student in the U.S., so I'm pretty much tied to whatever my health insurance will cover. In fact now that's the other part of this equation: waiting to see if my insurance will approve the ADR in the first place.

Lost appeals for ADR. C5-6 ACDF on 3/10/16
ACDF never fused, and ACDF accelerated damage of the other levels. Someone please kill me.
