One more thing, not that it makes a difference to you personally, but I actually disagree with Dr Clavel's assessment that the osteophyte is the main cause of my scoliosis.... I didn't pass the middle school "scoliosis screen" and had leg pain and numbness at 12 years old. I'm quite sure I didn't have osteophyte formation at that age. I tell you this, just so you really know yourself well and consider questioning others thoroughly, which sounds like you have no problems doing.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR PROCEDURE SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO DO IT! |
Brett -
Not sure if you're still scheduled but wishing you the best of luck!! Tyler ps - I also had some scoliosis in the affected region (potentially the result of a motorcycle accident years ago that led to the affected discs being very compressed on one side) - but it was regarded as mild and hasn't been an issue. |
Thanks everyone for your replies. I have decided to put off surgery until the summer months. I am getting married in April and wish to be in adequate shape for our honeymoon. I have been sick and was forced to postpone the surgery anyway. This will give me more time to research the issue further and perhaps find another doctor with more experience to do the procedure.
