Well I had been having some pretty serious back pains that started quite awhile ago and I was diagnosed with scoliosis in October. I had been going to a chiropractor to help "adjust" my back, and he helped get the scoliosis down to 15% or so. However, the pains just got worse and I ended up going to an orthopedic surgeon. He basically told me that going to the chiropractor was big mistake and he might have made it worse.
Anyway, to make a long story short, the pains have come back and I went to the orthopedic surgeon again this morning. He couldn't find anything wrong in the X-Rays but I am going to get an MRI done in about 2 hours.
If they do find something wrong ((I could possibly have a disc in my lower back that has already started wearing down)), I may have to take a break from my volleyball season or get surgery if needed. Yikes. :eek::(:eek:
Anyway...
Please keep your fingers crossed for me!!
((I know, kind of a pointless thread...but I just need to vent since I'm seriously stressing out over this :p))
Haha...there is a plus to this though...I get to stay home all day and only have to go to school for the last two periods ((and one of them is Drawing so it'll be easy haha)) ;)
