Answers:
Lots of people on this forum have it!. They are in many different places in their journey!.

Effects, hmmm!. I'm guessing that you're asking about untreated scoliosis!.

o shortened height
o bad cases can squeeze the heart and lungs
o nerves can be pinched which means numbness or other neurological issues
o back pain
o cosmetic problems (shoulders or waist uneven, rib deformities, bent torso, etc!.
o possible gait problems
o inability to do certain activities
o inability to do certain activities for very long
o possible depression
o possible weight gain (not able to exercise for long, depression, etc!.)

I'm sure there are more!.
