Hi Sara,
Sorry for not replying earlier. On the "old and crusty" part of the site, there's a paper I wrote back in 2004 that may be of interest, see:

Recovering From ADR Surgery - One Patient’s Holistic Perspective
I have to update it soon, but it may address some of your questions. In the meantime, what other information might help you? Have you watched a video of the ADR procedure? Do you have any questions not "fully" answered or addressed to your satisfaction? Now is the time to let us know how to help...
