hello.this is my first time posting here,so may I introduce myself...my name is Zac,I am 17,and I live in Western Kentucky.
I come to you all tonight to ask a serious question.
I have been diagnosed with kyphosis and scoliosis.
I have pain sometimes,its on and off,just depends what all I do(physical activity)
Sometimes my back will hurt from sitting in my desk at school for too long.Sometimes my back will just hurt period.Sometimes it will hurt from not sitting down as much I need to.
I guess what I am asking is,should I go ahead and have surgery?
I am trying to schedule an appointment with a doctor in Nashville by the name of Doctor Spangler.Not for sure which hospital he is at,but I can find out if need be.
Right now I am on Lortab7.5mg for pain.
I have tried IBUProfen 600mg,and different assortments of Tramadol,but none of these really worked like I wanted them to.
The Lortab helps my pain somewhat.
Sorry this is so long,but I think this a serious matter,I thank anyone who reads/replies to this!
Thanks for your time!
Sincerelly,
Zac Fennel..........

I have severe scoliosis myself, diagnosed when I was 12 and I am not 33. My spine is an S shape and I have to tell you that the best combo of drugs my doc found so far was a short course of steroids combined with celebrex and darvocet when it is really bad.

Good Luck!

Thanks...
But should I go ahead and follow through with the surgery?
Thanks again,
Zac Fennel
