I have a 15 year old son diagnosed with Kyphoscoliosis. He is getting an MRI on June 17. I have been told over the last year that it isn't the Scheurman's (sp?) type, but who knows!
He also has flat feet and his left foot had a taleocalcaneal coalition which was surgically removed 5 years ago. He wears an orthotic in that shoe now.
So far, we are going by idiopathic. His scoli curve is now around 28 degrees; he now has curves in cervical, thoracic and lumbar areas and the kyphosis curve too.
We are in wait and see mode, but the doctors seem perplexed by him. We have been to two major children's hospitals for his spine and three for his foot.
Any input is so very welcome!
