Ouch!
I broke T4, T5, T6 and T7 a few years back, so I certainly understand what you're going through. Not sure if it'll help you Legz, but I found ice packs were much more effective than any of the pain killers they gave me. The ice seems to numb the area.
Feel better soon, and no more falling down, OK?
