Hey! I'm new to this forum. I have known that I have scoliosis, since I was about 15.
I am now 31 & am in pain every day. But, some days are worse than others. I have an appointment in Tennessee next month to see a Surgeon @ Campbell's Clinic.
When my parents took me when I was a teenager, they wouldn't do surgery. My curve is in my neck & my upper back. But, the surgeon, at that time, said the surgery would be too risky. But, I wasn't in pain @ the time.
I am in pain now & want to see about having something done.
I want to hear different people's opinions, that have possibly had surgery and if they have any regrets or not.
I've started reading David Wolpert's 'Scoliosis Surgery' & it's very scary sounding. Such as, you may have it & not be any better off.
