I am looking for other people with scoliosis (mild to severe) to start a group. I know for me, my severe scoliosis has a major impact on my goals, exercise, and body image and would like to find support from others who are going through the same thing. Anyone on here interested?

    Hi! Just found this post. Did not even know myfitnesspal had such a place. Found it on line.

    I am two years post-surgery. I have a scoliosis blog, check it out if you want.

    www.scoliosisthejourney.com

    I will friend you on here and we can keep each other motivated. If you start a group, I would join it.

    What state are you in?

    Just saw this. mild here. I did just have xrays due to an injury & they showed my scoliosis was stable. Still wonder if it made me more vulnerable to this herniated disc.
