Default Peyton Manning Fusion

For those who do not know who Peyton Manning is, he is one of the greatest NFL Quarterbacks of all Time and plays for the Indianapolis Colts. Over the past few years he was having Cervical problems. At the end of last season he had a Foramenotomy. Well that didn't seem to help to much. So a few weeks ago he under went a Cervical Fusion.

This guy make's 10's of millions of dollars a year and is probably worth well over $100 million.He has access to the best surgeons in the world. Before his fusion he consulted with several spine surgeons.

So here's my question. Why did ADR never come up as a solution for him? Why did all the surgeons he consulted with recommend Fusion? Is there something that us potential ADR patients want that is really unrealistic to the vast majority? You got to think if ADR was the right thing to do,Manning would have had it done and by the best surgeons.

I know everyone is different, but appreciate any thoughts.
