RedLava,

I had my ADR in 2004 and my Charite' is holding up exceptionally well. With regard to revising ADRs, it's not a cakewalk, even for experienced surgeons by any measure. Has it been? Sure. How many times? I lost track -- it may be in the thousands by now.

For cervical ADRS, I would expect them to last a lifetime -- even for a younger person like yourself. Of course, you would have to be the perfect candidate and free of other disease(s) that would not contribute to further degeneration.

Hey, add a siggie please:
