I ususally go into New Haven, but Guilford is a much better place to stay. Good Choice of cities to see him.

Chuck,
If Dr Yue can't get you in the study, he can refer you to Dr B himself and he will send all of your medical records over. For me it was very easy. I just waited to hear from Dr F-M that I was accepted as an ADR candidate.
I'll email you with hotel and traffic info.

If you are going to the Guilford office, then there is a Comfort Inn and a Tower Inn right next to each other, about a mile away from his office.

If you feel like it, tell him that David from Ohio says "hi".

Now that I think about it, if the Comfort Inn tries to sell you on their "continental breakfast", don't go for it (if that is the only difference in your mind between the two hotels).

The Tower Inn next door give you a "ticket" to get breakfast for free at the Comfort Inn...

"activ-l 90 days after prodisc approval"

Interesting. I am presuming that statement is true for both single and multi-level part of the study?

*sigh*...Going to be a loooong year...

"What's the next step??? Any idea how long you'll have to wait?"

When I visited Dr. Yue last month, he was thinking "any day now" for single level approval. Of course, he was also thinking about 6 months for multi-level approval (my estimation is ~1 year).

david
from my understanding the studys will start 90 days after each prodisc procedure single level first.
now if the fda would get off there butts we would be in good shape.
i must quit smoking
and i need some more tests
also need to lose 9 lbs to be 30 bmi.
he asked me to email him so when its time to make appointments all could be sent at once.
well my only concern now is my job that ive had for 23 yrs is starting to get abit shakey to say the least
if something should happen there i would sell the house go to dr b for a activ-l and move to SC my wifes parents will give my wife land if we wish to build on it. i think i could do it all including new module home and not own if any money.
hopefully it wont come to that.
