I think that arthritis is more of a problem with ADR than fusion, but that's just what I've heard. I'm sorry that I can't give you anything more specific.
I know of a woman who just went over to Germany and was having stem cell treatment (I believe) to rebuild her bone. It was in pretty bad shape, and she was first having that, then a hybrid, I think. I can get more details from her if you like.
I hope this isn't as bad as you think. Positive thoughts headed your way.
