Hi!
I'm Elisabeth, 15 and new here, so i'll introduce you guys to my problems.
I was diagnosed with scoliosis when i was 10. I had two very severe curves (T-76 and L-42). I then had a T-5 to T-13 spinal fusion. Everything went well until I went to see my surgeon 6 months ago for a checkup and my x-ray showed that my lumbar curve had started to move again and my rib-cage has turned leaving my back disfigured.
I've just gone through a 4 months growth period and I'm now starting to worry.
In the past 3 months i've been experiencing some really bad hip and leg pain. It's like a burning cramp and it's only ever in my right leg. I've also been experiencing breathing difficulties that i've never had before.
I'm seeing my surgeon again in 2 weeks but I was wondering if anyone reading has experienced or knows anything about these problems could tell me if I'm going insane or if it has got anything to do with my annoying curve.
Your support will really help. (Sry for the long post!)
