Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 My advice is keep a close watch on her back. It may never get worse or it could go bad real fast. We were on wait and watch and went through several growth spurts (this is when it may go bad) without any change for 18 months and then very quickly it got worse. So if you think it is getting worse don't be afraid to call and tell your doc that and ask them to see you sooner. Mine always has.

Hello, I just found out that Atiana has a 9 degree angle between T5-T10 and has minimum rotation! So thats why they diagnosed her with spinal asymmetry!My question is will it get worse and how fast does it get worse? Should I still wait for 3 months and take her back up to the child rehabilitation center or what do I do now? I will find out more when they fax over the dictations to me and I will keep you all informed! Olivia & Atiana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Olivia, That is really great news. I don't know if anyone can answer the question as to if it will get worse or not. With minimal rotation, Atiana may be one of the lucky ones that the curve resolves itself. Even if it stays at 9 degrees forever, it is nothing to be too concerned about. Alot of people have <10 degree curves and don't even know it. I think a 3 month follow up is acceptable in her case. If you don't feel comfortable with that, maybe they could get you in in two months instead? I think a follow up to child rehab. center is fine as long as the curve is not progressing.
