    Default Re: Anyone with ADR problems

    i know of several with prodisc-c issues, mostly on another board. hard to say what the cause is - at least 1 was b/c only 1 level was fixed when 2 probably needed to be done to start with.

    have heard through the grapevine of a couple of M6C patients who didn't do as well as they would have liked - but am not aware of any revisions.

    i'm a lumbar patient myself, so i don't review ALL cervical posts, but i did review a lot prior to my own surgery when i was deciding on a surgeon.
    non-surgeon MD in the US - but laid up no longer!!!
    Initial injury - 2006 fall from horse - initial dx SIJD w/ nl MRI
    L5/S1 discogenic pain from posterior annular tear
    Biacuplasty successful but disc re-injured in MVA
    M6-L implanted Oct 19th, 2011 by Dr Clavel in Barcelona
