Hi all,
Quick question, especially for those of you who are waiting and watching like me. How often is it necessary to get xrays? My last two xrays were from 1998 and then 2006. My first doctor thought that it looked like my curves were progressing about half a degree per year based on those two, but another doctor didn't think there was conclusive evidence. I'm not in any pain right now and have actually had an increase in my spinal flexibility / range of motion. Part of me wonders if the curve has progressed over the last year, but part of me also wonders whether it's necessary to get xrays done every year. Any thoughts out there?
