I had a spinal fusion in 1968 (8 vertabrae) that was performed at Orthopedic Hospital in Los Angeles. Dr Robert Treat was the attending surgeon but has since passed away. I was 12 years old and up to a year ago I lived a pain free life. I had 4 children all without incidence and now Im experiencing pain under my left rib cage which radiates to the back. My upper spine is now curved and in pretty bad shape. Im wondering if anyone knows if there is a relationship between scoliosis and abdominal problems. Im in a great deal of pain and am trying to self diagnose. I beleive that I would be a great candidate for a research program on scoliosis...so any tips advice or recommendations would be wonderful...
