Karger, You have every reason to be confident that you will have a good outcome.
1) You are only having 1 level done
2) You are relatively young and healthy
3) ActivL is IMO the best lumbar artificial disc
4) Dr Zeegers is a incredibly meticulous surgeon

Who are you going with? My wife can give you lots of info on places to shop,eat etc.

I am 7 weeks post-op (2-level) and doing very well
