My sister had the metal rod surgery before, and she wasn't able to bend properly for a good amount of time (2 years or so) but was able to eventually. I was looking into the laser surgery, but I'm having issues finding one that would help with scoliosis. it would help with the herniated discs and swelling though.

The main issue with the chiropractic is that she even said she doesn't know for sure if she can fix it. after the six weeks is when i'm able to see another specialist about it. i'm just asking anywhere and everywhere at this point for opinions. I'm also looking around for support groups of people who've had back surgeries to see their opinions on it.

Would it be possible to do surgery after a prolonged duration of chiropractic?

right now my i'm stuck doing chiro for at least 6 weeks to see if there's any movement. so i've got 4 weeks to decide :/

 i've got 4 pinched nerves, and 3 herniated discs, reverse curvature in the neck, and a "multidirectional curvature" in my back (lumbar/thoracic) scoliosis essentially on steroids.  This is causing a ton of pain. it's to the point where i've had to start waking up an hour earlier than normal so I can get my back loose enough to where it will allow me to bend and get out of bed.
i'm currently having chiropractic appoints every other day, and have so for 2 weeks. I've not had any difference in pain levels.

Pro's on chiropractic route
No surgery

Con's
Expensive (120 dollars a week)
not a guaranteed fix
takes upto 5 years for the condition of my back to "possibly be normal"

______________________________________________________________________

Pro's of back surgery
I know it's fixed right then and there

Con's
Long recovery time in the back (1.5 - 2 years)
possible paralysis
possible numbness
Metal rods in back for rest of my life.


also, this is part of why im not as active as i was during initiate portion.

You defy your country. I like people who travel.
How old are you again? 15+ countries is damn impressive.

I'm 21. When i lived in Germany (3 years) my family made it a goal to go to every country we could before being restationed stateside again.

I still want to go see Venezuela and Brazil though

1. I've recorded over 500 community service hours every year since i was 14.
2. I'm involved in 3 on campus organizations including Theta Chi Fraternity.
3. I like to look at cute animal videos and pictures when I'm bored, sad, or anytime in general.

Bonus round, i've been to 15+ countries.

Can i have a waffle and chocolate?

welcome

adding legacy mode helped a lot but if they had a world with no summoning in wilderness i think that could be an interesting "turn back the clock" sort of thing.
