Lauren,

This must be very scary for you but this forum is a great place for support, and we are here for you!

In my journey in getting my cervical two level ADR approved by my insurance, I will be certain to keep your situation in mind as I talk to professionals and do research, and pass along any information that might help you.

Do you know what kind of disc it is? If you can contact the company that produced the disc and let them know of your situation they might be helpful in locating a DR with experience that can help you. It would be in their best interest to do so, anyway.

Please keep us posted on how you are doing and I will be praying for you.
