There's a bunch of X-rays in this bag.
All X-rays are in these big envelopes.... got UM Hospital & Assunta Hospital & others.
Receipts & appointment card...
I realized that I got this disease when I was 6. ---- SCOLIOSIS
Definition:
Amedical condition in which a person's spine is curved from side to side, shaped like an "s" or "c", and may alsobe rotated.To adults it can be very painful. It is an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine. On anx-ray, viewed from the rear, the spine of an individual with a typical scoliosis may look more like an "S" or a "C" than a straight line.It is typically classified as congenital (caused by vertebral anomalies present at birth), idiopathic (sub-classified as infantile, juvenile, adolescent, or adult according to when onset occurred) or as neuromuscular, having developed as a secondary symptom of another condition, such as spina bifida, cerebral palsy, spinal muscular atrophy or due to physical trauma.

HERE is just some of it.

The curve became more serious. In 2006, I had a surgery.
Sugery is usually indicated
for curves that have a high likelihood of progression, curves that cause a significant amount of pain with some regularity, curves that would be cosmetically unacceptable asan adult, curves in patients with spina bifida and cerebral palsy that interfere with sitting and care, and curves that affect physiological functions such as breathing.
Surgery is usually required with a curve of 40 to 50 degrees but I waited until 80 degrees because once the surgery is done the height is 80 to 90 percent fixed.So, I waited after the puberty.
The surgery involves a combination of rods, screws, human made bones and wires fixing the spine and can apply stronger, safer forces to the spine than the Harrington rod. This technique is known as the Cotrel-Dubousset instrumentation, currently the most common technique for the procedure.
