I am currently 22 years old and 21 weeks along in pregnancy. I found out when I was 15 that I had scoliosis, but my parents did not have the money to have the surgery done. I haven't experienced too many problems (until recently), my scoliosis is actually caused by my right leg being shorter than my left by about probably 2 inches now. I'm not quite sure where my scoliosis is located seeing as it was so long ago since it was discovered, I don't have the X-rays, and once again my parents didn't have the money to keep up specialist visits and such, I was also young and looked at it as 'who cares, it's not like it hurts'.. Guess what, it sure hurts now! Mostly in my upper back in the right side of my ribs, it's been pretty controllable until today. I'm sure it doesn't help that I'm an office manager and sit most the day in a hard uncomfortable chair, I did discover today tho that sitting on my stability ball seems to help, although I'm not sure if it really does or if it's all in my head.. If you have any suggestions or comments to this I would Greatly Appreciate it! (I don't know what degree my curvature is, sorry)
