You must get to a doctor who embraces the new technologies. That will likely mean going out of town. I would not trust a doctor that does not frequently do ADR's to tell me that I'm not a candidate.

Unfortunately, like most of the ADR patients I know... I had to go overseas and self pay for my surgery. (22,000 Euro, at that time it was worth $22,000 US)
