So I got my x-ray results back (finally). I have a 20 degree curve in my lower back. I'm on a waiting list to see a specialist 5-7 weeks from now. I guess the x-rays showed that my legs are slightly different lengths so I will be getting some kind of shoes?? ever hear of that? And probably a brace too. I also found out that my grandmother has scoliosis too and over the years it got worse and she now has stomach problems because of it--so there's extra precautions because of heredity. But that all makes sense because I do have problems with my ankles & knees, I just thought it was nothing.
My mom's taking it very seriously and she wants me to be careful until I get in to see the specialist. I have to tell my coaches about it now. It's not something im looking forward to. It seems like noone gets it when you tell them. My dad, well....he thinks it hilarious that my legs are different lengths. He's in disbelief, like "You walk fine. There's nothing wrong. Doctors just overreact."
Can you see a brace under clothing? Am I going to have to wear different clothes if I want to hide it? Not that that's really important but I'm just wondering. I'm a girl that likes to shop
I think [hope] im free from doctors for the next few weeks now. That's nice. I'm really starting to hate being there. Even work is better lol.
