Hi Mark,
My heart goes out to you. I live in Melbourne and would like to have ADR in Germany. My concern is that if it doesnt go as planned there are very few experienced ADR surgeons in Australia to do a revision. So I would probably have to go back to Germany.
We are really behind the eight ball here down under and it is very frustrating that we are so conservative with our medical care.So that surgeons arent given the chance to really develop their skills in thes new technologies. Personally if I had the money I would go to Germany or USA for revision surgery or bar that have posterior fusion by a good surgeon here.
Can i ask who did your surgery? And do you know how many they have put in?
I think if they cant remove them they shouldnt be implanting them.
I really feel for you and hope you find a solution soon.
Michelle.
