Thanks for the response. I figure there is no reason to rush the settlement since it is taking over 4 months just to get each case into review. I am wondering if there are any ADR spineys out there who have had any issues arise years after their ADR. Since I was 35 when I had my ADR, I am considering potential medical issues/needs for the next 50 years. Does anyone know the status or medical history of those who participated in the early stages of ADR? I am hoping to get a gauge or ballpark idea/figure regarding costs and/or procedures. Gratefully
