View Full Version : Anyone with Scoliosis? Warm & Fuzzy 01-30-2006, 08:44 PM Just wondering. I was officially diagnosed with it today. :( MaydayMalonesGirl 01-30-2006, 09:31 PM I have scoliosis, but I've never bothered going to the doctor for it. They diagnosed me with it in school a couple times. It's only slight scoliosis because I'm so tall and I have horrible posture. Do you have to wear a brace or anything? My friend had to. Polniaczek033 01-30-2006, 09:41 PM i was tested for it last year but it was just an illusiiiiiiiiion. i just have weird butt cheeks or something. ahahahah. :lol: ~LadyJess~ 01-30-2006, 09:50 PM My friend was diagnosed with scoliosis when we were in junior high. She had to wear a back brace for about 2 years and she's fine now. Warm & Fuzzy 01-30-2006, 09:54 PM I have scoliosis, but I've never bothered going to the doctor for it.

My friend had to.I'm not sure if I'll have to wear a brace yet or not... or maybe even have surgery. *shrugs* The orthopedist told me it was a pretty big curve, so I'm going to be referred to ANOTHER orthopedist who specifically works with children. :rolleyes: Does your back bother you at all? Pains, stuff like that? I get REALLY bad back and neck pains... so yeah, it might need some major fixing. :( MaydayMalonesGirl 01-30-2006, 10:09 PM I'm not sure if I'll have to wear a brace yet or not... or maybe even have surgery. *shrugs* The orthopedist told me it was a pretty big curve, so I'm going to be referred to ANOTHER orthopedist who specifically works with children. :rolleyes: Does your back bother you at all?

I probably should have gone to the doctor in fifth grade when I was originally diagnosed to get it checked out. I hope you get everything straightened out (no pun intended).

He had to wear a back brace for a few weeks then they realized, it wasn't going to help. He has to have back surgery in the spring. Karen* 01-31-2006, 01:25 AM I've had it since seventh grade. It was just mild when I first got it, but I don't know if it's worsened. Sometimes it feels like it has. Really, really sucks. I'm always feeling like I need a back massage. :( Pitooey 01-31-2006, 09:07 AM I feel for you......... My physician told me I have slight scoliosis. I have curvature of my neck and sometimes it could be painful. I hope everything goes well for you. |
