I would constantly be complaining to my parents that my ribs hurt, and it was hard for me to breathe…my doctor was the first person to notice that I had a small lump on my back…I went for x-rays, and found out that I had Scoliosis.
At age 47, I began experiencing a dull ache between the shoulders which nothing—heat / cold packs, exercise, chiropractic, rest—seemed to relieve.
