I believed swelling/inflammation from the fractures caused numbness and pain below the fractures. They also affected lower GI function. You might have other causes. Things got better, they really did. It takes time. I know it's hard to hear that when you are in serious pain.

I barely wore a brace. I still use it though- 3 years later- if I have to lift some things. I mostly cannot lift much! I don't think a brace is going to help that much but I could be wrong. I hope you can discuss with PT.

I didn't do PT or tai chi until things had settled down but I did talk to a PT about what movements to avoid and strategies to use. It is good you have a spouse to help!

This will be my third therapist in a 4 month period. They tried to treat the spine but didn’t take into consideration my osteoporosis. My pain doctor told me to go to different therapist and he said that she works with patients who had fractures. I have resent fractures in L5 and L3. They call them stress fractures.October 2022 I fall in my kitchen and had a compression fractures and those, according bone scan, are healed. I feel so bad that you are going through this alone. My husband is still working and most of the days I am alone. It’s very hard to do the simplest chores. I hope that I can handle Evenity and stop fracturing my spine. You been very informative and helpful to so many people on this site. Thank you so much for your responses.
