Hello everyone.
I have been searching and searching the net for as much info as I can on scoliosis and I came across this site, and I am very glad I did:0)
My daughter came home from school yesterday in floods of tears as she had been picked on because of the way she ran in the playground... I asked her what she meant, and she said that the kids were laughing at her because of the way she runs, but she said she has to run like that because her back feels awkward and hurts when she runs..
Well alarm bells went off in my head, though I had not even heard of scoliosis. I got her an appointment with the DR this morning and he said she has lumber scoliosis, and she also has a 2cm diff in leg length.
We have a referral to orthapeadics next friday.
I am scared, upset, concerned and feel so dam guilty, I never noticed any of this. I have been reading info and it seems surgery is the only complete cure? am I right in thinking that?
What a bad day.
Thank you for reading.
