Hi all and hope everyone is well,
Just got back from George Washington University with Dr. O'Brien. Very nice people. I found that my curve is 18 degrees which doesn't seem like much. No surgery recommended which I am glad about. He said I should have it checked once a year and did give me a referral to A spine and pain center. I guess that's really all that can be done. What I was wondering is can I find a spine and pain center closer as I don't want to go to DC all the time? It's kinda hard to get a grip on I'm gonna have to just deal with it but there are worse things. What, if anything, has helped you all? Massage? PT? Muscle relaxers? Of course I don't want to take any pain meds on a regular basis. just as needed. Thx for any suggestions, Steph
