Guest guest Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Today we removed 's cast and we are so thankful for another 12 degree improvement, bringing the main curve down to 14 degrees from an original 37 degrees in just four months! The top curve remains a bit stubborn though, and upon closer inspection, our doctor thinks that might actually have a hemivertebrae somewhere around C-4 or C-5. I was wondering if anyone else on this listserv had a similar situation and whether anyone can give me a sense of what exactly a hemivertebra may lead to and/or what are the treatments. Unfortunately it has been extremely difficult scheduling an MRI and we have one coming up but we just wanted to see whether anyone had a similar experience and could send us any information. Thanks!
