Life is a fuck, bruv. But you're doing a whole lot with the little the world has afforded you and it's hard as fuck but it is what it is.

It does sound like you are carrying a lot, that sucks.

I'm sorry for all of it, especially the back and hip problems. Living with constant pain is brutal.
If you can afford it - and it's a terrible, terrible world that I have to add that disclaimer - I would see another doctor. My layman's understanding is that being underweight is as terrible for your health as being morbidly obese, and further that muscle mass can do a lot to protect and isolate bad joints. Take that wild speculation for what it's worth.

From all the doctors I've seen, this is the only one I feel I can trust. Specially because the others were "to the surgery room!" with a mother cell treatment that may or may not work.

Ugh, yeah. Underweight scoliosis sucks. Yoga and icyhot helps though.

i think a lot of stuff like scoliosis is from trauma and psychological shock.

Why do you think that? I didn't experience any major trauma, I figured it was because of bad posture and because I was so skinny as a kid I didn't have the strength to carry around a backpack. My scoliosis is much better now, wore a brace for a few years.

Simply living in this world is traumatic in ways we are forced to normalize and deny for the sake of conveniently continuing to live in it.

The other scoliosis.
