I will be 12 months out from a T12 fracture adter a direct fall on tile at my tailbone which jammed my spine up to my neck….took my breath away and could not get up….in hospital 6 days. 3 months later was still in severe pain. Went to neurosurgeon who said my fracture was getting worse as the height loss had gone from 30% to 50%. Was tested for OP which was at -.3 worse in n spine. Had a vertebroplasty done at T12 on Oct 3, 2024, but after 7mths I am better, but still have low to mid back pain late in day everyday. Ice is the only thing that gives me relief. Have a PT training me for posture, balance and some weights to strengthen my core. Do not wish to start drugs at this time. I am with you ladies as to the struggle with op and fractures. Pray we all improve with time!
