Well, about three weeks ago I had to go and fall again. There is a metal lip that pertudes out on my door jam on the bottom and I got the front of my sneeker caught in it as I wnet in the door. Trying to hold the screen door open and stepping up is a hard job.
Anyways, i had a visit with my neuro and did not tell him about the fall. Although I was having some mild pain where there was none before. Just above my surgical cement site. I was working in the shed the other day and when I was done, it hurt so bad I had to put a call out to him. I have been on Oxycodone for my bulging L3.4 but, now he also put me back on Morhphine Sulfate extended release so I could at least have a pretty normal day without pain. He first wants an X-Ray and then another MRI if needed. Right now we are ruling out two possible things. One being a new fracture and the other being some of the cement cracked and let loss. Either way I'm fooked.
I just hope it is not the cement cause I will have no option but another surgery then. If it is another break, then I will opt of a back brace.
Wish me well and send me some of the white light gang would ya?
