I know nothing about ADR's. I am almost a totally fused spine except the upper 3 cervical levels and the lower 3 lumbar.
What i am writing about is the length of time between surgeries. I had a major reconstrucion of my thoracic spine on Sept 24th. T2 thru L2. Then at my first follup visit it was discovered that i had vertebral fractures on 2 thoracic vertebra and i had surgery on those on Nov. 4th. Then my first post op on that one, my neck was in trouble and on Jan 7th i had major reconstruction including breaking my neck (osteotomy's) in the cervical/upper thoracic area. C4thru T5? I am 53 and recovered fine from all of this , so at 23 i think it might not be the most pleasant experience, but you can do it. If it comes to that.
