What Does The Following CT Scan Report Suggest?

Is a lumbar hyper-lordosis (79.5 degrees) a contra-indication for a 2 level C5-6, C6-7 ACDF? Not a trick question. It happened to me with disastrous consequences. I got 12mm of bone at C5-6 and 10mm of bone at C6-7. Only exercise removed the LHL symptoms. After 7 years both C4-5 and C7T1 herniated and badly bulged C3-4. Herniations replaced with Synthes ProDisc C. So I have a locked in LHL and cannot exercise. Only solution I can see is remove the ADRs and allow for osseous fusion at C4-5 and C7T1. Thoughts?
