Mark and all,
While reading the post on preemptive ADR on top of fusion to head off future problems, I remember reading a study that suggested ADRs also negatively affect adjacent discs over a longer period of time. With the drugs I'm taking and unable to remember where I left my feet
, I couldn't tell you when or where I read this but I believe I did briefly discuss it with Mark.
If the above is true, then putting an ADR into an overwise healthy disc would/might be fruitless. I think most of us believed that ADRs stabalized our spines, taking all excess pressure off of adjacent segments. Is this or isn't this true?
Anyone?
