EXACTLY!!

I was recently informed that my scoliosis has caused me to form bone spurs and degenerative arthritis of the spine, as well as degenerative disc disease. Do you think I can convince my PCP to refer me to physical therapy when my new insurance policy takes effect?

I completely understand your pain. I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease last year. And yes! It is important to communicate with all your doctors about your symptoms and new diagnosis. Physical therapy is good for strengthening your core. Also, if your PCP says no, don’t stop there! Try to speak with an orthopedic specialists because they can directly talk with the physical therapist about the perfect plan for you. Never stop asking for help, until you get it because scoliosis hurts no matter what anyone else says.

I hope everything works out for you and you begin to feel some relief!💖

I finally did it! I am now a published author! Dancing with Scoliosis: An Ellie the Ballerina Story is an introduction to Scoliosis for children. This children’s book follows a young girl, Ellie, who dreams of becoming a ballerina, but is diagnosed with Scoliosis. This children’s book follows Ellie through her journey of dealing with the pain that is associated with her diagnosis and almost giving up on her dream. Some may not know, but I was diagnosed with Scoliosis at the age of 13 and almost gave up on my dreams. Well, one of them came true today! I can’t wait to touch so many children’s hearts with this book. You can purchase the eBook through this attached link!

Does anyone else find it hard to do the dishes? The amount of pain I have for standing for like 10 minutes is crazy.

I think I can’t get on roller coasters anymore😭 The amount of pain I had when I got home was absolutely ridiculous. The bad part is that I knew better 😥

I love going on trips, but I’m dreading the long car rides 🥲

Does anyone know of some good shoes (sneakers) that won’t cause my feet to hurt after a long day of standing/walking?

Been a long time….but I didn’t realize that my mild scoliosis would make me so fragile. I’ve been dealing with the pain of my rib becoming misaligned for over a year now. Everyday I’m learning something new about my scoliosis

Do you ever take a deep breath and you can feel how stiff your back is?

[scoliosishurts]

Yesterday my back hurt so bad, I was limping. 😒

Also it’s been a while, how’s everyone doing?

[scoliosishurts]

You know I’m in pain everyday, but something about today, today is one of the bad ones.

I hope you guys are having a better day than me. Let me know if your feeling good today💝
