. Changes in the muscles have been described on many occasions, see for example http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9765036?dopt=Abstract , question to ask really is whether this is cause or result of...

happy birthday!! ...and that is to all of you.

thanks

i'll try to stop feeling sorry for myself

L is just happy being braceless, I don't think she has a clue what fusion might entail and mean in practice, might be better for now

and yes,...

I have, seeing him in the mirror on a daily basis.

Re Cheneaux; seems to be a non starter, consultant not particularly encouraging and L and wife not keen. Currently feel might have to bow to...

thank you Renee, emarismum and Laura; every bit helps

Considering I started this thread, I might as well put you in the picture about our current situation. In line with what happened with melisaa's and cheryyl's daughter, we haven't been doing well at...

spinecor protocol says once/ 6 months, more frequent is not going to make any difference in practice as it will not change the management!

just change it to "curve approximately 20 degrees", which could well be kind of correct and reflects all the variables involved and variation that occurs in measuring a curve

this is one of those occasions where you can see the tension slowly building up between people, and in a way it is hard to understand why as both people involved are clearly sensible and reasonable...

sorry cheryl, I have to strongly disagree with you on this one. You are now blaming yourself for the curves progression. You SHOULD NOT!! It is only your theory that the tension in the various bands...

this is really the confusing and bewildering aspect of the spinecor treatment, about which we have asked and asked again; the spinecor is actually meaned to cause a postural imbalance to keep the...

oh Cheryl, do not beat yourself up. we all have our own theories of what might work and what might not work, things we should try and things we could do different. The one message I have got from...

fantastic Laura; this thread needs some good news!

gerbo

thank you

gerbo

didn't miss them, never looked at them......

what is her function?

gerbo

personally I have always believed that the likely assymmetry of muscletone, even at rest could still have a detrimental effect, even if laying down. also, if most growth takes place at night (is that...

I am going to ask this at some stage, so might as well do it now; which "professional" involved in the whole process would I email to get further information and discus suitability of my daughter...

Deirdre will be fine, as long as her spine is kept straight there is no reason for it to progress. Mark my words!

as the boneperson is saying; that's all there is. Some might refer to some published articles which you could try to get via a library.

gerbo

been thinking this before as well, might have to revisit it at some stage.....

agree, don't know though whether this is by choice (i.e. I considered the options and decide to do this or that) or by default (i.e. I take the route I do, because this is what my doctor has advised...

just to make sure we all agree; i think there is something quite exciting and inherently logical about this stapling approach, and I know Celia thinks on similar lines........

ailea; how is your daughter doing?



but in all fairness; cheryl's daughter was relatively young, and had a great initial reduction (so enough flexibility), there was nothing to indicate it...

Cheryl, I am sad and upset for you and your family and have my own fears and anxieties multiplied. I know you have a great religious faith and get lots of strength out of that; I sincerly hope this...
