When I asked him if there is anything I shouldn't do, it was pre op. I'm not sure about long term, but I will ask if he meant right away or indefinitely. I just asked my hubby how he took it and he thought the Dr meant short term. He did tell me that since we have a pool, that will be a good choice.
For me personally, I'm not going to risk anything that might endanger the disc. I figure nothing is as good as the real deal.
Artificial disc is called that for a reason. It might help to take pain away and give you some freedom back but I'm not going to look at my ADR to give me a free pass to try anything and see what happens. I'm just a bit more coservative at this point.
