Chest Pressure, Fluttering Heart, Headache, Fatigue, Equilibrium Problems. Diagnosed With Scoliosis. Suggestions?
I was diagnosed with scoliosis when I was 14. I have curves which are over 30 degrees. Always have felt as if my ribs are pulled in on my left side. I have not been able to sleep on my left side for years because of chest pressure afterwards. I am 34 now. Over the past 5 years I started really having chest pressure and heart flutter after exercising. About 2 years ago I started having a lot of pressure in the upper chest and equilibrium problems after exercising. Even falling off a treadmill because of the equilibrium problems. Stop lifting weights and exercising because of this. It took 3 months after stopping exercise to feel close to normal again. Started working out again in 3 months but same thing made me stop again. This time it has not gone away and even walking several minutes gives me a headache fatigue and equilibrium problems.

Hi, you was diaggnised with scoliosis when you was 14. You are 34 now, having eqilibrium problem and chest pressure after exercises.
It all due to muscle shortening of scoliosis. I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe pragaboline, muscle relaxant anti inflamatory, and muscle relaxant ointment for local application. Thank you.
