Remember Tony - ADR2002?
He was very active in the first ADR forums... had 2-level ProDisc as a training case in December 2002. Early success turned to problems when he experienced severe subsidence as a result of too small and poorly located prostheses. (They don't call them training cases for nothing.) The start of HO (autofusion) was apparent on 6 months post-op xrays.
He had a tough few years after his surgery, but I'm happy to report that he's doing well. Not nearly as good as he'd hoped, but he's still working and living a good life without a ton of meds. He doesn't sustain the activity levels that he used to, but he's adjusted to his limitations and is functioning well. It was great to catch up with him today. Join me in wishing Tony all the best... Mark
