  • Axial biotech scoliosis survey.

    Survey link. Scroll down to the link that says click here for survey. Only took me about 10 minutes. Completely confidential.

    I saw this in the NSF news letter and thought it was a great idea to help doctors and researchers figure out genetics and bracing and all that jazz, so I filled it out.

    Not sure if it has already been posted elsewhere but figured it was a great idea and everyone should do it to help them get a better understanding of this.
    36 year old single mom of teens ages 14 & 15.
    Anterior/posterior spinal fusion on February 9th & 16th 2006 with Dr. Anthony Moreno who now has his own practice.
    Fused from T-3 to S-1 (sacrum)
    Curve pre-op = 70 degrees
    Curve post op = 20 degrees
    No pain anymore!!

          Just wanted to note that I think these studies are fascinating. I received a request from Axial Biotech for a saliva sample. I am waiting to hear back from them. I read up on the website about what they do, etc, and I think it's amazing.

          Has anyone worked with this company or heard anything additional?

            Another survey.

            I just filled this one out but had a tough time with my computer during the whole thing. There is another survey on WWW.SCOLIOSIS.ORG click on "Understanding Scoliosis, back pain,and healthy backs: A web survey. I did this one a few days ago when I found the link in the summer 2006 NSF newsletter.
