Hi CDW, I'm right across the river from you in Fort Lee. I was two weeks away from going to Europe this past March to do two levels in ADR. The surgeon who had done my last cervical fusion and a lumbar one talked me out of ADR. He did a minimally invasive procedure instead. In my case, I was in severe pain, but only for months, not years. I was concerned that I was experiencing the domino effect that previous fusions sometimes have. If you want to send me a PM, I can recommend some surgeons in the area who you might want to consult with for opinions.
Good luck and let me know if you need any suggestions from someone local. Gene
