Hey Melody,

Just don't forget, some of the docs here stateside are training with docs that have been doing these procedures for years in Europe. See if you can get some more information from Mark's page. His group is a wealth of information, when it comes to the newer procedures. I just don't have enough experience with it to be of more help.

Over time I've learned alot about the spine, between my education (nursing and biology Bachelor's programs), and my own experiences as a T-spiney. If I can help, feel free to PM me.

Theresa
