I am wondering about this. I have it and have had it since 2003. I never had it before, I had an accident and have never been the same. I have an appointment with the S.S. offices doctor on 3/27 for their records, but I am really unsure if it is even worth it. I can't stand, walk or sit too long. Laying down is ok, but then that seems to hurt me too. I don't have a doctor, no pain meds, just advil, tylenol, etc. I saw a Chiropractor and he said that he didn't guarantee treatment would help me. If you are on disability due to scoliosis, can you please tell me how you got it? Did you need a lawyer? How did you word the application? Thanks for any help. I really am nervous about this.
