Just a quick update to my story:
I had a full discectomy and ADR of my L5-S1 with Dr. Rolando Garcia of Aventura Hospital in Aventura, Florida last week and I feel great! He implanted the Activ-L device and I am very happy with it. I would recommend the procedure and Dr. Garcia to anyone in a similar situation as mine looking for relief.
