ive known that i have scoliosis for...almost 2 years now. as soon as we found out, i started doin specific exercises..and it got better. a couple of months ago i had some x-rays taken and the angle was 21 degrees . ive been wearing braces for 1 year and a half, i recently had the second one made. im seeing a physician regulary and im in ... rehab, is it? not sure what its called. this lady im doing the exercises with says im gettin better, but every time i look in the mirror it seems worse...i can tell from the curves that are supposed to be equal at the waist line...i dont really know if the new brace is actually helping me in any way. i know the old one pushed so that the spine would be kept in a straight position, but i think this one is built more to keep it as it already is. i believe its gettin worse because my posture is slowly deteriorating as well...ive seen 2 diff doctors and they all say i should be out of the brace,but its worse WITH the brace...
