I was lucky that both my sons did not inherit my scoliosis, but then my youngest got insulin dependent diabetes.

I have been wondering about my grandaughter though and hoping she wont develop it. ...

MYTH that scoliosis does not cause the lungs or other internal organs to be crushed?
I will explain how it did all that and more to me, if you want me to, exactly the same as many others.
I am...

Kaizan I have sent you a private message.

Hi, as you can see I was fused to L3, and now have a bit of deterioration and osteoarthritus due to age, so I agree, just go as low as they want and save what you can.
Good luck 52skee, Mauxi and...

Carly, just had to comment. Good on you sweety, so proud of you, and a very good post you wrote as well. You are right, I learnt to bend from the hips too and it was really great to read that you...

Hi Guys,
Well for 34 years I was definately part of the general population. I had my surgery and that was it, on with life. Never had a problem, never even thought about it, never had to until...

Ooh Kristy thats terrible you poor thing. Have you been back to the doctor honey to see if the fusion has taken properly??

I agree with Ruth, Kyle. I would recommend you have a look at the spinecor thread as your curve does sound low to recommend surgery. Even 33 which is when they said they would operate, they usually...

Hi Deb, I have taken this medication before but never for a long period of time, as it is not recommended to do this.

A cream as suggested would seem to be the best option for you as you do have...

I have never had any problems with being fused, none at all.
