Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 I have Scoliosis and Rods and lately my back hurts off and on all night. I am really tired during the day. This is new to have it hurt this much. I wonder if something is wrong. I had the fusion 30 years ago. I am 52. It feels like the whole spine hurts and my legs spasm. Anyone had this? Sounds weird but I am wondering if it is my cholesterol meds or my thyroid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Well leg spasms can be caused by some medication and sometimes just getting older. If you are starting to experience pain though after 30 years then you might have flat back syndrome. If you do a Google search on flat back syndrome as there is some info there. In addition there are for those afflicted with it. If you have Harrington rods in there for that long, it's possible you have developed it. > > I have Scoliosis and Rods and lately my back hurts off and on all night. I am really tired during the day.
