Scoliosis Support Group
Scoliosis affects all ages. Unlike the naturally occurring curves in the spine, scoliosis causes the spine to curve abnormally to the left or right.
As my son can't tell me were he hurts, i feel lost and dont know wat to do to help ease his pain. He awakes from his sleeps and seems to be uncomfortable and at night he will only sleep on the sofa as its cushions are arched - i think this is easing his pain as he would take his longest sleep here. Does this sound right? Any advice on sleeping comfortably would be greatly appreciated.

I love to sleep on my tummy, but the pain the next day is bad! I sleep on my right side fetal postion. A pillow between my legs helps with some pressure. In the hospital they put a pillow between my legs, than one in front of me and one wedged behind me so if i leaned back the pillow stopped me from rolling all the way. It was very comfortable. How bad is his curve? Poor baby, I feel for you both.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
