“your comment about being completely paralyzed is just straight out false in relation to extra risk of getting ADR.

I’m getting the exact surgery this winter, I'm not a pro athlete, I'm a brick layer. I had the choice between a fusion or ADR and it was an easy decision to pick ADR. The percentage of 100% recovery is extremely high, while it's a guarantee a fusion will affect my mobility for life.”
This was always the story, no? That ADR was long lasting and leads to a full life, but fusion is the one that athletes have typically done. I think they worry about athletic performance versus normal living. I don’t know the numbers for each.
