Finally I'm 21!!!
I'm both happy and sad...
Happy because of that I get my freedom.
Sad because I'm 21years old means I'm old already. haha..jk
People around me will know that I have scoliosis.
But almost all have no idea what is that.
Because people don't notice this due to the fats around my waist...XD
So this is it...
Yup...this is scoliosis and this is my xray...
Gosh....naked me...wahahaha
I get a 37degree scoliosis and the doctor told me that the only choice to treat this is by surgery.
This surgery will have 50% risk of my life and if i don't take the surgery, I'll have severe back pain in future. I have to choose one.
I was shocked with this news when I get it 6 months ago.
I went to uncountable number of hospital and specialist and all of them suggest to punch holes to my spine and tie it up.
Feeling disappointed and hopeless, I told my mom that I don't want to have that surgery.
I do rather take pain killer then getting the risk to be paralized or even leave this world.
But at the lowest moment of my life, my parent asked around and spotted a chiropractic centre that claims they can help to adjust it without any surgery.
I tried it out for 6 months now.
Besides the painful treatment I get every month, I need to refrain myself from eating lots of stuff,
like cool drinks, soft drinks, alcoholic drinks, coconut, sour foods, spicy foods and even beans...
I went to the hospital in the morning for some check up.
Taking some Xray and check again the angle of my spine bend.
I don't hope for much actually.
I was thinking, as long as the angle didn't get worst, that will be my best gift for my birthday!!
I was quite worried because having some severe numbness on my legs recently.
So, I went in, take the Xray(forgot to look at the Xray first) and went to the doctor for some calculation of angle.
The doctor look at it, with a shocked expression, walked away and left me alone for more than 1 hour.
I'm quite scared. Thinking is that the angle getting worst.
About 2hours later, the doctor come in to explain that the angle of my scoliosis reduce to 18degree!!!
Then he showed me the Xray!! I was like WTFish!!!
Its almost straight now!!!
Excited, I asked if I can take the photo of my Xray, he say cannot!!
Why?? I don't understand. Its my own body. Hmm...
Haiz...its ok... still, its the best birthday gift for my 21st birthday!!
Thanks mom and dad. Love you so much...
