Hello,
This is my first time to post. Just was wondering if anyone could give me some info. My daughter is 14 and was diagnosed with scoliosis about 6 weeks ago. We have an appointment to see a doctor in three weeks. The x-rays she had done said there was significant convex-right scoliosis of the thoracic-spine with a Cobb angle of 39 degrees from the superior endplate of T6 to the inferior endplate of T12. There is compensatory convex-left scoliosis of the lumbar spine, with a Cobb angle of 30 degrees from the superior pedlclemargins of T12 to the inferior pedocle margin of L4. I was wondering what we can expect when we see the doctor. We it be bracing or surgery?
