Reverend,

Sincere condolences on the reemergence of your spine issues, but welcome.

Almost four years ago Texas Back Institute quoted me $50k for a single level ProDisc cervical ADR. I'm sure that a lumbar surgery would have been more.

I am only familiar with the Dascor nucleus replacement. Is this what you had? Or is there a Dascor total disc replacement? What level was your surgery? You are probably aware that lumbar revision surgery is considered a high risk surgery.

Good luck, Jeff
