Well folks after years of back pain, trying to get a proper diagnosis, years of conventional treatments and months and months of doing research on this site, as well as others, I have finally made the decision to have ADR surgery with an M6-L at L4/5 by Dr. Clavel at the Barcelona Spine Center on May 17th, 2012. Thanks to all of you that have freely shared you experiences and knowledge with me and all of the other lurkers out there. I feel anxious, nervous and relieved all at the same time!! I now just have to book airfare and hotel rooms. I hope that I can share my experiences on my way to a pain free life again with all that continue to use this site to help make their own choices with regards to their back problems well after my surgery and for years to come!!
