    9 Month Post Op

    Lorena had her follow up appt this morning and everything looks great.

    She has grown 3 inches since Sept 2006 and her curves are doing great ~ post op her 42* curve was 26* today it was 22* I know +/- 5* so at this point no change so all is holding.

      That's exciting! Congratulations!
      God has used scoliosis to strengthen and mold us. He's good all the time!On this forum these larger curves have not held forever in Spinecor,with an initial positive response followed by deterioration. With deterioration, change treatment.The first year she gained 4 or 5 inches and was stable at around 20/20 in brace, followed by rapid progression the next year.She is now 51/40 (Jan2008)out of brace (40/30 in Spinecor) and started at 38/27 out of brace(Jan2006.) Now in Cheneau.
