Hello guys,
Since both doctors have different opinions I'm not sure if a Discetomy or an ADR will help me so yes I'm going to get another opinion this friday Cathy thanks for your message... I'm wondering though for how long a disc replacement lasts? I have read that the revision surgery and or to take out the old implant and put another one is suppossed to be a very threatening surgery? I'm reading and finding out that some people is in a lot of pain after the surgery and take months to recover while others are ok within weeks (this makes my decision to go for it more difficult)... How did you feel after your surgery Mark?After hong long did you pain go away? Why would you only recommend fusion at level L5/S1?
Thanks for your comments .... trying to take a decision based on your real life stories ... Can't be in pain any longer need to fix problem ...
Any advice is really appreciate it
