Could really use some help regarding ADR....
Hey all,
I still haven't been able to get and/or find all of the answers I am looking for and could really use some help. Here are a list of questions I have:
1) How long are ADR's "projected" to last? 5 years?
2) When and if they go bad, what is next? Fusion? Can you get them replaced?
3) Going to the Texas Back Institute to see Dr Ziglar but also thinking about Germany as well. Not sure if either is right, but would love some reccomendations of who is considered the best for Lumbar ADR surgery. L5S1 precisely.
I really appreciate any help regarding these questions. Thanks everyone.
All the best,
Chris AKA Back2lifeplease
