The short answer about scuba is yes, depending. There was some question about the potential of gas bubbles forming within the annulus of an M6 or similar style ADR. I don't know if that was ever resolved completely but I think someone here posted recommendations that limited time and depth for a person with that kind of ADR.
you should be able to search on that and decide how much you trust the information. I do know that others have been diving with older style ADRs and fusions and haven't had a problem.
