Jim and Lorna,
I think i might have the same problem (if your pain is generated from the facet joints). I am 2.5 years after Charite ADR and have been basically in constant pain since ... 2001? As soon as I recovered from my surgery this new pain hit me and hasnt gone away.
I'm glad I found you. It's nice to know that you're not alone in these situations. Jim, did you have facet deterioration before your ADR? I know it's been a while since you guys posted on this thread, but I hope you guys read this.
Blair
