Well you do understand what he's going through!! I don't think people who haven't been through it can really realize how limiting it can be. And how you have to watch every single thing you do for the fear of another fracture. I can't believe you fractured in your sleep, or bending to pet your dog, or even from coughing while putting on deodorant. I'm happy to hear you're on Evenity shots and I really hope they work for you. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to lift a whole gallon of milk? I'm always reminding my husband what 5 pounds is. It's not much! We've made so many adjustments around the house and with pretty much everything we do. Still, he's doing some things that worry me like dragging a very VERY heavy trash can across the street. I told him I'd do it but I hear him out there now doing it himself. Makes me cringe!! He goes in for a follow-up xray of his spine tomorrow to see if the fractures he has have stabilized and I am praying he doesn't have any new ones. I just asked him about the trash and he said he's pulling the trash, not lifting, not bending. It's on wheels but it's very heavy. Maybe it's OK?? We shall see. We meet with the physical therapist again this week and I'll have to ask.

Yes it's very boring but fractures are not something to mess with.

So sad to know what you had gone through! And many of us are in the same boat. But were you aware about your fracture risk before you got the fractures? Have you fully recovered from them ?
