    scoliosis running in generations

    manda,

    to answer your question does scoliosis run in families, the anwer, sadly is yes, it does. i know in my family it did. my grandmother had it( my dads mom) my dad had it now i have it. my dad did wear a brace and cast after his surgery. i did wear a brace for five months and now i am having surgery. i know i have the samr concern as you. if i have kids i don't want them to go through what i am going through. the good thing is that there is a chance that your children will not get scoliosis. i hope this helped

    Braced for 5 months
    Decided on surgery with 65 and 54 degree curves
    Pre-op curve measurements were in the 70's and 80's
    Surgery on April 26th 2005
    Fused from T3-L4
    Post-op curve is 15 degrees
