I fell on my butt in March, 2020 from lightheadedness, heading to the rr using my walker (after being home only 2 weeks after cancer surgery and rehab hospitals - gone 4 months, lost 100#). EMT came to the house to help me up & ck for broken bones, because 36 yo son couldn't lift me. In 3 days I was in severe back pain and PCP sent me for a MRI. Discovered I had 3 lumbar compression fractures. I asked Dr for a DEXA scan. Seems I have OSTEOPENIA. One of the fractures went ahead and collapsed. Orthopedic surgeon to wasn't strong enough for back surgery - rod, brackets & screws. My PCP started me on Tylenol, then with codeine, then Lori tabs, then 50, 75 a d now 100 Fentanyl patches. Helping somewhat, but now experiencing colon pain and issues I had Morphine when I the hospital about a year ago (PCP partner Dr was covering that w/e). It seemed to do much better than Fentanyl patch, but my PCP wouldn't prescribe it.
