I saw a chiropractor today.

I found out, I have one fractured vertebrae. But it's the most common type of fracture. It only rates as a one on whatever scale it is for seriousness of a fractured vertebrae. The vertebrae just happens to be right where it hurts in my lower back.

I have scoliosis more than what normally occurs in a person over time, and the spine is also rotated too much on top of being too curved.

My right leg is smaller than my left.

Also I have enough plaque in the part of my aorta in my lower torso to show up on an x-ray.

What does this mean for me?

More work with the chiropractor. Getting a physical done now or at least blood work for cholesterol. Changing my diet even more than I did over the last five months.

Yay for me... :(

Just a little tip from one who has been there. ! 1,Chiropractors aren't MD and aren't supposed to practice medicine. 2, I had high c most of my life & ignored it, in 2007 I had a procedure done that opened a 98% blockage on my main descending artery. The Dr. called me a dead man walking. I watch my diet now & feel a heck of a lot better. I suggest you have a stress treadmill test done & find a good cardiologist. It saved my life. Good luck

I'm supposed to have a

I'm supposed to have a physical in 3 months, but I'm moving that up. I am going to take the information back to my PCP.
