Thank you so much for responding! I only slept the first few days as I was tired and also my back and neck were sore and lying down was the only thing that gave me relief and I invariably fell asleep. Since then I have been back on my normal sleep routine and the odd short cat nap by accident.

My dr suggested go back to work on Monday (2 weeks after fall) and to do half days for a few days. As I feel right now, that seems ok but obviously I won’t know how I am at work until I get there.

I saw my osteopath who, like you mentioned, identified some c-spine issues and worked on c1. After, my neck felt 2 inches longer, it was amazing.

The hardest part of all this is the unknown. I know many people do recover well but I also know people can have chronic issues for years. I will continue to prioritize quality sleep and listening to my body and take it one day at a time.
