Thanks Michael.
Yeah I am trying not to bugger it up... shoulder injuries always take so long to heal so it seems, I can live without that.

My left shoulder goes through phases of glitchiness! lol One of my shoulders looks more rotated forward than the other, not sure if that's from the scoliosis, it's not really a pain thing, it just sort of niggles (whatever the fuck that means

) and sometimes feels like it wants to rotate back to far.

I think you need to add a dictionary section to your journal girlie

I didn't know you had scoliosis, what is it?

Rocco32 · 02-23-2005, 07:58 AM

Morning Kerry

how's today treating you?

Jeni- Scoliosis is a curvature of the spine.

Velvet · 02-23-2005, 07:59 AM

Is one born with it? Does it worsen?

Yeah, your usually born with it and sometimes it worsens, sometimes it doesn't. I have scoliosis as well and it's pretty noticable. But luckily it doesn't seem to have worsened much in the past 10 years.

Velvet · 02-23-2005, 08:20 AM

where is your curve, lower spine or upper? It's genetic? Sorry for the questions but I don't know anyone with the condition so I know diddly squat about it

Rocco32 · 02-23-2005, 08:23 AM

Mine starts about the middle of the back and travels up. I believe it's genetic but don't quote me on that. It makes posing hard as crap LOL. I have noticed when I was getting my back tats done that the left side of my back is more developed than my right due to the scoliosis. You know not to worry about the questions, I'll answer what I can

Morning Mrs. Brit

Yep, David has pretty much described exactly my condition too.
I only discovered it last year and that was only because I noticed how asymmetrical my shoulders were when I posed.
I now believe that scoliosis was the reason for severe ongoing neck pain and headaches that I have had since I was a teenager, no doctor ever found a cause for it and I was basically resigned to the fact that this was just something I had to deal with.
Anyway I saw a chiro to see if he could 'straighten' me out for posing purposes. He discovered the scoliosis and I now see him monthly for adjustments... since I started seeing him I am virtually pain free!
I thought he also had done a lot for my symmetry but it actually appears better right after an adjustment and sort of goes back to being completely off within the week, very frustrating when it comes to posing as David said.
The right side of my back is also way more developed than my left.
My scoliosis starts in the middle of my spine also.
I believe it is genetic, once I discovered it and noticed the difference in my shoulders I remembered my mum had the same thing exactly, she thought it was due to something else though and was never diagnosed as having it though I am sure now that she had the same thing.

Oh and good morning Jeni, David and NT.

Oh just wait. Mine are 13 and 16 you'll get much more senile around then. From what I hear you'll become much smarter when they reach and mid twenties

What's the high temp for today NT? It's meant to get to 12 degrees here today.

naturaltan · 02-24-2005, 09:45 AM

it's always a pleasure to see you smiling face (among other pics I look at on your website)

Someone mentioned 9 above ... we've had a very very mild February ... makes me nervous what we'll get in March.

Awww... thanks NT.

I guess they are now calling for 16 here today, that's unusually high but I'm not complaining.

	I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
