Hi tipster and welcome,

I'm sorry you find yourself in need of another surgery - as if the first one wasn't difficult enough.

There are two reasons for going overseas for surgery. The first is the cost which can be a 50% savings. The second is your choice of doctors and you really can't do better than Dr. Regan. I don't know if your insurance is going to pick up any of the ADR surgery.

Your facet arthritis may impact your choices too.

When you talk to Dr. Regan next week, be sure to explain what you do for a living and let us know what he says.

Good luck, Dale
