Hi, New to the boards.
Our dd was diagnosed with Scoliosis a 37 degree thoracic curve with a significant amount of rotation and a compensatory lumbar curve.
I am sooo scared for her. I noticed her wing was pretruding and her rib cage seemed to stick out a bit while on vacation. Called the Doc as soon as we got home and he confirmed Scoli. From there we went to a Ortho Specialist...he confirmed and diagnosed her with the above diagnosis. We are VERY fortunate to be approved with the Shriners in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Tomorrow is the big day for us, we meet the Ortho Cheif of Staff to find out How they are going to treat her......Is there anyone out there that is going through this as well??? What does all this mean?
I am crying inside because I feel so helpless.
Thank you
