Need to be seen: Your symptoms are confusing and scoliosis is not usually associated with other issues like weight loss or hair loss unless there is another cause for all of the issues. Get seen asap.

Scoliosis: Scoliosis should not be blamed for weight loss, hair loss or indigestion. Scoliosis is a common condition, some have no symptoms, some suffer from back pain. Symptoms depends on severity of scoliosis. Please see your primary care physician and get evaluation for your weight and hair loss.

More going on: Usually, hair loss, weight loss and digestive problems are not related to scoliosis. See a primary care doctor to define the causes of your problems with hair, weight and digestion. Then if your doctor thinks you have scoliosis he should send you to a local spine surgeon for evaluation.
