Hi everyone! I had scoliosis surgery 6 years ago for my 60 degree curve. It was 10 after surgery. I recovered fast and everything has gone good. I have pain in the upper part of my spine where the rod is.
To get to what i was wanting to say was that about a year ago i went to my scoliosis doctor and had routine x-rays done. I thought he was going to tell me everything looks good and come back in 2 years but he told me that one of my screws is a millimeter away from my aorta! A MILLIMETER?? Do you realize how close that is?? I'm just wondering if anyone has experienced this problem and could tell me what you have had to do about it.
Thanks!
