@jeriliz, I too was told about 15 years ago that I have scoliosis. I remember having to wear leg braces with big oxfords when I was young. They were probably to correct something to do with the scoliosis, no one ever told me why. Only recently has it become a problem as my back is giving up to degenerative disk disease and all the other problems that happen to lumbar disks. I had a laminectomy in December, 2016, and was on 3 different prescriptions for pain and muscle spasms. I have stopped taking 2 of the drugs and now only take Tramadol primarily for my arthritis. I decided feeling the pain was preferable to feeling drugged and goofy. Good luck with your scoliosis.
