Pectus Excavatum Blog

Ever since Kristi was born, she has had Scoliosis and Pectus Excavatum.  At the age of 26, doctors found that her Scoliosis was continuing to get worse by a degree or two a year.  In the meantime, her husband noticed that her pectus seemed deeper and felt they should look into this condition as well. After tons of tests, doctors decided that surgery was needed to repair the Pectus Excavatum.  Though the Scoliosis is still a concern, surgery is not necessary at the moment and doctors will continue to monitor the progression.  This blog will contain all of the information that Kristi and her husband, Dan, could find on Pectus Excavatum (hopefully in the near future) and currently contains Kristi’s daily journal detailing her experiences before, during, and after the Nuss Procedure. They hope that this blog truly ministers to all those who need information on this problem.
