im 16 and i was diagnosed with scaliosis 2 years ago and there wasnt a cause, and it was my mum that actually noticed that my bach was a bit tilted so we decided to go to the doctors and they told me i had a big curve about 60 degrees. it was a emotional rollacoast for me and my famile but we got throught it. i then decided to have the operation done as it was the only option. i did my operation on the 24th of august 2011 and it has only been a couple of months and i feel normal i can do evrything except exercise. i was scared that i was going to become parlysed and not being able to be me again. but i was wrong i recovered really quickly at the hospital and at home with my mums help. while in the hospital the day after my operation i got to start walking and it was really hard as i was really dizzy and i couldnt stand up by myself, and i could feel a heavy weight in my back which was really umcomfortable, but after 7 days i was walking at a normal pase. and now if you see me in the streets you wont notice i even had a major operation which was what i wanted, i can now lead a normal life. and i strongly advise for anyone to do the operation it will give you back your life.
