@sunny65 my last fractures were three lumbar. The pain was unbearable. I was crawling on the floor. I live alone and couldn't function: cooking, laundry and of those things were almost impossible. I stayed in bed and only got up to go to the bathroom, and getting out of bed was agony. I learned to roll.

A physical therapist gave me free Zoom instruction on movements I might be able to do, after awhile (this was during COVID). I tried to walk as soon as I could, even if a half block. I did tai chi on my own when I could. Moving a little as soon as possible helped, I think, in the long run.

My fractures were mid-April I think and in 6 weeks I was considerably better.

It is now 3 1/2 years later after Tymlos, a few months Evenity, one low dose Reclast. I still have pain off and on. I believe a lot of it is muscles coping with the shortened spine: they spasm.

But overall you WILL feel better. I know very well the agony you are in. Do you have help? If not I would hire someone: I wish I had even if I had to pay.

I have husband who helps me a lot. I am trying to walk short distances. I wish I can wear brace ordered by pain doctor. I have consultations with different doctors. Trying to figure out why I lost so much weight. I think from pain. I take occasionally Tramadol just to give myself brake from debilitating pain. My husband just ordered for me different brace to try . I heard that to wear brace all the time not good idea. Since my back pain started I been having numbness and pain in my knees. I am sure this pain is related to my back. What kind of Tai Chi exercises you were doing and did they helped with pain? One of my consulting doctors thinks that my pain might come from annular tears as well. It is very confusing.
