Disk Replacement at Stenum Hospital, Bremen, Deutschland

[fuzzy]

I was scheduled for ADR at Stenum 4 years ago. I delayed the surgery only to hear of several disasters that happened there THAT month. So I feel glad I listend to the local doctors who said "wait a while longer, it might all grow together and then the pain will be less"............

Well, the pain is not less, it is more. I have managed to improve in certain ways by avoiding the activitys that causes peak pain but the cronic pain level has been getting worse and worse and the neuro problems in my feet and legs are on the rise. I am not sure if waiting was a good Idea and I had that feeling back then. Now I am scheduled with Dr Bertagnoly in Bogen on November 7 for a least 2 but possible 3 level lumbar ADR with bone cement for my weak bones and I am glad I am there and not in Bremen, after years of study I am sure I make the right decision to go ahead and take the chance rather then continue to suffer. Maria you have suffered too long it seems.
