I just found this support forum and it is very exciting for me as I was very glum after my last doctors appointment. I noticed that there is a group attending the arthroplasty symposium in New York in May. I will see if I can meet up with people there as I am looking for a life line of hope. I am a 40 year old living in Canada and have DDD related problems in lumbar and cervical areas. No surgery scheduled in the near future.

Greetings and glad you found the site!

We're just a couple hours south of you...do road trips up to your fair city now and again, and will also be at the conference in NYC.

Husband Kevin had successful Charite ADR at L5-S1 last August. So track us down at the conference!
