I am getting ready to make my first appt. with an orthopedic surgeon to look at my "curves". It has gotten to the point that I don't think I can breathe as good as I should be able to. This is such a slow process over the years, that it isn't a jump-out-at-you difference, just that I find myself breathing against pressure. It seems like it should be easier to breathe than this. It's almost like I can feel my body pressing on my trachea and lungs, because when I twist into what should be a straight alignment for me, it seems I can breathe better. Of course, staying in that position is extremely uncomfortable!
I also feel like my intestines are about at the position of the diaphragm instead of around the upper part of the belly button. So when I bloat with gas, it really causes me to feel more short of breath. And then it doesn't have room to move on through.
Anyone have this pre-surgery and then got better afterwards?? I hope so, because this is a daily struggle I would like to go away!
