ADR Surgery in 2 Weeks - Anyone faniliar *Please Read*

[racergaldar]

Sounds like the same clinical study I applied for, except recipients didn't know until the day of the surgery whether it would be disc or a new rod; I didn't want the rod (ie fusion) and was hoping for the ADR, but since they only wanted people who only had one disc problem, then I wasn't a candidate. I'm glad I wasn't because I felt for me I didn't want to risk such a major decision testing a new product that wasn't approved by the FDA. However, I am involved in another clinicial study with an fMRI where they teach me how to mentally manage my pain and take fMRI images. No risk and maybe it may work and I can control the pain mentally instead of narcotics.
