Top 10 List of why Schuermann's Kyphosis can be entertaining!

I have decided to do a humourous post on Kyphosis, in the good old Top 10 format. So here goes:

Top 10 Reasons Schuermann's Kyphosis can be Entertaining



1: Random tendon releases when you move your neck. It sounds like a starting pistol at an athletics event, yet nobody hears it.

2: The most bizarre places ever for muscle cramps. Seriously how many cramps do you get in your lower Multifidus?

3: Longissimus Cervicis.. poor thing, it makes the most entertaining snapping noises when you turn your head.

4: Dolphin skillz.. yup, if I am doing just the kicking in the pool, and I have a snorkel, I can move pretty damned fast.

5: Drowning skillz.. yeah, due to the Scapula, Trapezius, Rotator Cuff and AC joint mess that are known as the shoulder girdle, and the above mentioned neck issues, free style is renamed in my case to drowning in style.

6: Not being able to get that last bit of drink out of a can. Yup, unlike you boring flat back people, I can't tilt my head far enough back to drain a can of soft drink/pop. Hmmmm, should always carry straws. (will add some straws to shopping list)

7: Interesting body positions during sex.. If you have seen Bram Stokers Dracula, where the werewolf is going for it on that lady at the manor...

8: Good basis for Halloween dressup. I am thinking of a Werewolf next time..

9: Too much humidity makes breathing exhausting. Seriously, had no issues in Canada with breathing, it was a blissful experience. Next move will have to be to the Himalayas I think.

10: Having normals come up to you in the gym and think you are inspirational. This one was hard to get used to. But, I guess the fact that a lot of people keep themselves in bed with a lot less, and I am still up and at em, then I guess yeah, I can be inspirational.

Bonus perk for us Mass Effect gamers:
I can yell "I AM KROGAN!!!"

So, enjoy! Remember, disability is a disability, how you take determines what type of person you are.
