Hello
friends,
I
am from Malaysia. Look this me yesterday at office.
I wore a shop
closing down sales Japanese vintage fashion dress that I bought
recently for just RM5. Do you think I look good on it? I could not
wear such dress before.
I
am 2+yrs scoliosis (curvature of the spine) surgery post ops. Before
the surgery my spine curve is having the cobb degree of 64. My body
was tilted to the right, my left torso get shorter and shorter. Not
to mentioned back soreness, I also have mild short breath and my
intestine trap with wind. My sleeping got deprive as my hands will
turned blue and numb when I sleep on my left side.
In
my 1st consultation surgery was indicated by my spine doctor. Yes I
am also like many of you, I was scared and worry. Nevertheless I did
not decline the scoliosis spinal fusion posterior surgery but instead
I want the surgery to be done ASAP.
Looking
back in fact I have no regret cause after the surgery I am more
healthy, more joyful. There is hope and sunshine as I know that I no
longer stepping nearer and nearer to the day where I would be
disable.
My
sincere advice to those who have severe curve and when surgery
procedures is being indicated do not decline. Instead source for your
best trusted, well experience spine surgeon. It is also important to
have your scoliosis surgery done in a well equip hospital with
certain tier of ISO certified Operating theater. It is very important
also to find out the shortest operative hours for your case, fusion
need to fuse to where. What brand and quality of implant will be
install before you jump in for operation.
Correction
can be achieve using today scoliosis surgery technology. From my
experience scoliosis surgery is a life saving procedure. It is not
all about pure cosmetic (I want to reduce my rib hump) but with today
scoliosis surgery cosmetic tag along with it.
A
well experience spine surgeon will fixed not only your curve but also
your body balance of shoulder, neck, pelvic and median lines.
You
need to aim for no error/ revision surgery, therefore takes good
consideration of who is going to be your spine doctors.
Sincerely yours,
Chor Mun Wong
