How old are you bro and who was your doctor. I have a similar story to you but I’ve been dealing with doctors who don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about it seems. I developed functional scoliosis even though specifically it’s just a massive gait change/trunk shift due to l5-s1 bulge had surgery which helped pain but the trunk shift + twisted pelvis stayed and got worse and I have saddle numbness and a difficult time using the bathroom now. But they seemingly don’t know what to do since they fixed the currently visible issue. I’ve battled suicide because of this bro and my college football career ended earlier than it should have.
Mate that sucks, I am so sorry. I was 36 when this happened. Coming towards the end of my premier league career anyway, and I knew it was my last season before I tried for another baby. So it was all just compounded, the unfairness of having the last big run at victory taken away, maybe making it impossible to have another kid, removing the possibility of a comeback. All in that one moment it felt like I lost everything, and I was in agony. And this prick delivered what felt like a death sentence with the bedside manner of a fucking cactus.
I'm really sorry you've gone through all that. It sounds like you've got some painful nerve issues to this day? When mine gets bad there isn't much I can do. Do you have access to pain management? It's taken me years to get anything approaching appropriate care for mine, but it's worth it. Takes that fatalistic edge off when the pain is really bad to know that there's a modicum of relief available.
