hi i am mum to 5 children and jodie our 6 year old was diagnosed with severe congenital scholiosis and rib hump in march. we saw the consultant last month and he says she needs to have a plate put on her spine and a wire attatched to it to see if they can pull the ribs back in place. i see that everyone on this site knows the degree of the curve but we didnt get told what jodie's curve measured at. what should i ask the consultant next time we see him. also jodie's school is 600 meters away and she cannot walk to school without being in pain and the teacher reports that jodie is often in pain at school and cannot complete a physical education class is this common with jodie's problem.
many thanks
