Hello, I’m Bob 62 y.o. with right thoracic, left lumbar double curve scoliosis. My last measurement in 2017 revealed my curve increasing and at 63 degrees. I am have attending yoga classes for over a year. Last week the instructor stated that I may be developing a third curve in the cervical spine area. I never heard of this before. My Orthopedic has retired. I l live on the southside of Chicago. I can’t get to Mayo until the summer. Any recommendations

Hello @bobwieler, welcome to Connect. You may notice I moved your discussion and combined it with the existing "Scoliosis – Introduce Yourself" discussion. I did this so the many members actively discussing scoliosis would have a chance to see your message and respond. @bobwieler, how are you doing with the side-effects of your scoliosis? It sounds as though you are quite active, does that help your pain? Did you notice you were having more issues before your instructor mentioned you may be developing a new curve?
