Center For Artificial Disc Replacement in FL

[Grover771]

ADR,
We ended up splitting the costs for my TBI surgery between credit cards (that were all linked to the same Southwest Airlined account- for the points.

Hubby spent a day or so going through all options and realized that if we took it out of retirement/money market accounts, that it would be considered additional income, but a line of credit wasn't. So we went through all that, charged tge surgery, going to pay the credit cards off completely with line checks, then will probably pay the line off within the year.

Good luck with your research. It will all be worthwhile once you make your decision.

I don't want to do any device besides M6 or Freedom so unless a clinical trial starts anywhere in the US is out of the question. My results very well may be fine with another disc but the risk I feel is higher. I contacted a surgeon (Leuyrssman or something, I forget) today out in CA whose website says upcoming M6 trial. Probably the withdrawn trial amd the websote isn't updated but figured I'd ask.
Anyway pretty frustrated with the whole situation and trying not to become resigned. I'm seeing if I can do payment plans anywhere. I can afford it and pay off within a year.
