I have back pain from scoliosis. No one ever looking over my x-rays over the years told me I had scoliosis.(I'm 83) I recently went to the doctor for a steroid injection after I fell and hurt my back. I asked to see my x-ray. As he was showing me, his assistant walked into the room and he said, "It's okay, she's an RN." I didn't think to ask why no one ever told me and why it was a "secret.".
I got a set of a back cushion and seat cushion off of Amazon for the car and they help me a lot. The normal seats in a car make it start hurting fairly soon.
