Background - Diagnosed in 1981 with a s-curve. Very progressive. Wore a Milwalkee brace from 1981-1986. I had back surgery in 1989....spinal fusion with Harrington rods and bone from my hip.
Now at 35 I am in worse pain than ever. I am waiting for another dr. appt which is August 15th. I went back in Dec and had an MRI, Myleogram and they didn't see anything abnormal (for my back anyway). The pain subsided so I let it slide. Now, it is back with a vengence. My hips are in pain. The lower part of my back and tailbone feel like they are burning. My back feels like it just buckles sometimes. My right hip, leg and foot go numb ( like prickles). The pain from sitting all day at a desk is not bearable.
While I wait for my appt what can I do for the pain??????
