Guest guest Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hi Kristy,I also have scoliosis. My curve is an S-curve at the top of my spine. My shoulders are not aligned properly--one is higher up than the other. It is pretty noticeable. I guess if it could happen with the shoulders, it could most likely happen with the legs also.
