My daughter was diagnosed with SK this past May. After many years of being told she has poor posture I took her to a spesensoredt. There she was told she has SK. She is 23 years old so bracing won't work due to the fact her growing is done. I found a great Dr. who she feels safe with. The only option she has to correct the 72 degree curve is surgery. She has really thought this through and (she had a 2nd opinion) has decided this January to go for the surgery.
I wish we would have known about the disease earlier in her life to give her the option af waring the brace. Good look!
