Ok, thanks :D I guess that's probably a more healthy attitude.
But, you know I get this impression that doctors just can't stand me as a patient. And when i complain about certain symptoms i get a...
Hi all!
So, I am sorry, I'm about to complain about some stuff related to scoliosis and doctors' attitude.
So basically last year I went to see a vertebrologist(he is surgeon) who specializes in...
Hey! I'd say my back pain is 5(bees), especially when moving somehow, otherwise just 4, so 4-5. Rarely is gets to 8(can't move, it hurts so much), fortunately this happens only if I am very very...
Hi, is intracranial hypertension common in scoliosis pacients?
Hey, it's me again ranting.
Basically, I've got some severe guilt issues about my spine illness. Well, this guilt thing was thoroughly nurtured since early childhood. When I feel this guilt I...
People have believed for centuries in the miasma theory. It turned out to be a fantasy, like so many other things. Like the humors theory of of Hippocrates and so on. The practice being old\ancient...
Thank you for your replies!
Hey, all!
Look, I was wondering if fatigue is common occurence with scoliosis? I attend some language courses and I must carry 2 books. Overall it feels like a burden. And sometimes I feel like I'm...
Hello, it's been some time since I came here to rant about my spine, but... things have got worse yesterday. I've hit my knee when cycling many months ago, and eventually it turned I have prepatellar...
I have some sort of pins and needle sensation when touching/using my left thumb fingertip. Is it possible for this to be caused by some nerve pinching in the neck? If it were so, wouldn't it affect...
Well, I got involved myself into cycling. I was very angry for a long time on myself(I guess) that I couldn't do swimming the way I wanted. Basically the morning after the bike ride I could hardly...
So, my mother has had 3 spine surgeries. During the third one they've removed the Harrington rods because of some complications.
So, whenever I have any talk with her about scoliosis I keep...
Thank you for the answers!!
I hope that I'm not annoying about writing on this forums about my issues. But I can't talk about this somewhere else. So feel free to ignore. But I must post this. The orthopedist doesn't want to...
So I've done today a spirometry test that checks the lung capacity. FVC is 2.57(norm foe my weight and height is 4.80) FEV1 is 2.40(norm is 4.10 for my weight). Anyway the point is that I've got...
Thanks for the suggestions. I still wait for the x-rays to get emailed me but its not an extreme cervical kyphosis. Its like a slightly reversed curve. I figured out that its a very very bad idea to...
Is cervival kyphosis common amongst scoliotic parients?
I had some cervical x-rays and now I can pretty much imagine why I have neck pain when I tilt my head.
For a long time I have slept...
I have not really started the thread to talk about theories but trying to share a warning. Whether the "practitioner" is a chiropractor or not is beside the point.
On top of what I have written...
I guess the sentence was badly formulated. I don't want to go to US. Because I know its extraordinarily expensive.
I wanted to ask one more thing. I know that after fusion rotation is out of...
Hi! Basically I've been subjected to quite a bit of quackery in my life(well 25yo).
There's been a guy who charged 100$ for a bit of massage and claimed that he could cure scoliosis(or anything...
Hello
I had an appointment last year with an orthopedist but back then I haven't asked anything about surgery. But that's beside the point.
I've been reading the forums and I've seen these...
I have both desktop and laptop computers. My table has some kind of shelves where you put flowers, etc, so I have put the laptop there and I am using it in a standing position. Of course after some...
Hi, just wanted to write a bit, I haven't posted here in a while. I intend to have another appointment with the orthopedist. Generally the physiotherapy exercises they prescribed work in a way. This...
I had an appointment with an orthopedist. According to his opinion my curve shouldn't evolve significantly in the near future. Yet he said over decades it could evolve because of degeneration. I've...
