This is going to sound v stupid but nearly 6 years ago I went to a chiropractor for a whiplash injury (I did it to myself trying to show ds how to do a somersault, stupid!) and he x rayed my back and said something like, iirc, "you have a spinal condition which is the thing that causes hunch backs in old ladies. There's nothing you can do about it, there would have been if it had been picked up before you were 6 years old." Since there was apparently nothing I could do about it and since I was in the process of splitting up with ex dh at the time and couldn't cope with any extra bad news I did nothing and haven't done anything about this ever since. I just couldn't deal with it and anyway, the chiropractor told me there was nothing I could do. So, should I find out what this is now? If so, how? Could my GP help? I can't afford a chiro atm and the guy I saw won't have any records I'm sure as it was so long ago. I know this might sound a bit dippy but I just read a thread where Tamum and hmb were discussing AS (andolysing something or other) and I'm worried that's it from a magazine article I read a while back. Any help or advice really appreciated about what to do next. Thanks in advance.

I was told a long time ago there's something wrong with my spine, what should I do now?
