Insurance and recovery
Dale --
In this case, I was fortunate to have a blend of "service-connected" disability insurance and private insurance that covers out of network, experimental, and unproven procedures, which I understand is somewhat rare. My consulting firm is self-insured.
Either way I am thankful and would have paid rather than have a fusion.
Will be sure to follow your advice and take my recovery slow.
