I had a double "S" curve, over 80 degrees, and had spinal fusion surgery in 1995 and 1996. Had just the normal pain here and there over the years and then last year, I had sciatica in my right leg which had me flat for over a week. Since then, I have been having terrible, excrutiating (sp?) pain in my legs, lower back, hips, etc. and can't seem to sleep, walk well, stand, or sit for a long period of time. I'm scared to go back to the doc and really don't know who to see because my doc was a ped. ortho surgeon and everyone else "runs away" from me when I tell them my past health issues. Anyone have any ideas what this could be from? Could the rods have come loose? I just don't know. I find that I'm starting to be curved again also. Is that even possible with the rods? But, other people are starting to notice so it's not just my imagination. Any ideas would be wonderful!
Thanks in advance,
