Hi, Im new here and I have a few questions. I was diagnosed with Kyphosis when I was 16 and now ten years later I have been dealing with it. I opted out of surgery back then because it was like 10 hours long and the rate of failure was higher than my parents cared to gamble on. Well, I am still having issues with back pain and it feeling tight all the time. I have to crack it several times a day in various ways. I have been thinking about seeing a specialist again because I am experiencing a few scary things. I am having various pains in my chest and back. My feet tingle here and there. Some days its only the left one, and other days it both. I have yet to see any doctor about it because I did not have insurance until recently. I am worried that all these pains and tingling are because of my back. I know I will need surgury, but is it safe now? It didnt seem as safe as you would have hoped 10 years ago. Anyway, I have an appointment to see my doctor for a referral on thursday, but these pains scare the crap out of my like I may be having a heart attack or the tingling is because of bad circulation. I'll bet its because of my back though. Lets hear of others with pretty bad kyphosis that had surgury and all is well now. Thanks in advance.
