Thanks Dorian. Have you ever heard of anyone that has had ADR surgery in Canada, successful or otherwise? I haven't. There are apparently some surgeons that do it in Canada, but there is no way to determine what kind of results they get. One neurosurgeon I consulted in Victoria, said he would do it but didn't even take the time to tell me what device he would use before showing me the door. I think Mobi-C is still the only one approved for two cervical levels in Canada but I'm not 100% sure of that.
Facebook ADR page sounds pretty informative but I've never been a Facebook kind of guy. I suppose I could join and restrict my use of FB to the ADR page only.
Whereabouts in Asia re you, if you don't mind sharing? My wife and I have travelled a lot there. We're not Asian but we love to visit. Unfortunately, travels are grounded until these spine problems can be resolved.
