    Default 4 years post-op fusion and ADR (Cervical ProDisc)

    I am currently into my 4th year for a post-op cervical 2 level ADR. Still dealing with bumps along the way and not from the Pro-C discs, but from the previous C6-7 fusion I had done in 2004. Had the second surgery done in Germany and I have never regretted that decision!!! It has given me my life back! Would be happy to answer any questions.
