C4C7 thanks, just had surgery consult with doc this afternoon. He said it takes pretty extreme impact to dislodge the adr. He said if it did fail it would be at the connection of metal plate and polyethylene spacer. I’m going to Keep searching for athletes with clerical adr, it would be great to see their stories.

x-ray/MRI showed moderate/severe DDD in C5-C6, and C6-C7, the bone spurs pinch the nerves that run down the right arm, causing constant tingling as well as inability to activate some of the muscles in my arm. In the top view of the MRI the Herniations bulge only about 2/3rds of the way across the spinal cord, I luckily have full control of the body below the chest except for minor tingling in the right foot.
