My Daughter, who is 13 years old, has been diagnosed with Scheuermann's disease but our doctor does not know much about it and has referred us to a specialist. She is also having severe pains in her stomach and back...has anyone with this disease had severe pain with it.........or do you have any insights on what we should do next?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Hello Cindy,

I am sorry to learn of your daughter's diagnosis. Are you going to take your doc's advice and get a referral to a specialist? From what little I know about the disease, hopefully your daughter is young enough that the problem can more easily be handled.

I gather you are in Canada...I'm guesing that's what the BC indicates, right? If so, I don't know what the procedure would be to locate a specialist in the field. It is my understanding that you will want to begin treatment soon to stand the best chance of achieving a successful correction.

Sorry I can't be of more help. Hopefully someone will have more knowledge than I.
