First Back Appointment

When I was 8, one year after we found out that I had scoliosis, we got an appointment at Gillette Children's to see what scoliosis actually was. I had to get two x-ray pictures and went to see what the doctor had to say. I had two curves in my back making it an S curve, the top and bottom curve were both 20 degrees. She told us that at some point in life I might need a TLSO, which is a back brace that holds my spine in a position to stop progression.  Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
