Hi Julie,
I second what everyone else is saying--do get that second opinion from a spine doctor.

I have mild scoliosis AND a small pinched nerve in my back, and guess what? After all the MRIs and everything else, the neuro and my other docs have confirmed that neither one of these is actually causing any problems for me at all! They confirmed that the problems I DO have are all caused by MS.

Scoliosis can exist and not cause problems. So can a small pinched nerve, even. I'm hoping for your sake that it IS the scoliosis that is causing your problems, of course--no one wants MS!-- but by the same token, I, like everyone else on this board, want to see you get the right DX.

So do follow up, sweetie, and keep us posted!
