Yes, a couple of bad falls a couple of years ago, and my back hasn't been the same since. There was a spinal fracture, and now I'm taking Fosamax.

This fall was bad but in a way not as bad as that one. At least this time none of the pain has been bad enough to keep me awake at night though it does get in the way of some daily activities. The main problem has been watching and cleaning the wound to make sure no trouble starts up--and just getting over the "blasted" feeling I get after most falls.

Just now I'm slow at everything I try to do and that may take a while to improve. I've had a lot of falls and several fractures. You might say I'm benefitting from my experience this time. I haven't had any help.

Thank you for your concern!
