scoliosis aaaa

My scoliosis has gotten soo bad... I was diagnosed in 2021 and just visited the doctor for it again after like, 3 years now. My scoliosis is VERY visible, my pelvis is twisted, and my feet are getting strangely swollen, plus lots of joint pain. I visited a physical therapist, and he showed me that my back is basically built like a SNAKE. The top/middle is curved right, bottom curved left, AND my shoulder blade is poking out of place, and my ribcage is up against it - that explains why I have so much pain on my shoulder when I sleep at night... I'm having to do stretches every single day, and I'll be doing physical therapy next week. I really, really hope this stuff works and I won't have to end up in a backbrace. 
My scoliosis has been EXTRA painful today, too! I went on a 40-minute walk to dollar general, and by the time I was walking back, my food got so swollen and painful that I was basically hobbling like a zombie on the sidewalks. It was awful! I have medication as well to take when it's painful, but it really doesn't help me too much tbh. I'm kind of just lying in bed with my painful back rn siiigh
