It will get worse..........

How I wished I did 'not exist' now.  I cannot move much even with the help of the walker.  My pelvic bones are damaged by cancer earlier and after the fall there is no way it can support the top part of my body.  The pain can be unbearable each time the weight is on the right leg.  Lying down and getting out of bed is becoming a difficult task.  

What to do - nothing much can be done except to wait for the slow recovery process.  "It will get worse before it can get better".

This photo gives me some peace of mind.

 OMG! Now I have to use the walker to move around the house.  Other than pain, I am also having muscle atrophy around my buttock area for some time now.  With less muscle my legs' movement seem to be restricted.  As far as I know, if there is no sudden sharp pain, I don't have to worry about broken bones.

The pain is really terrible.  My opioid painkiller is not very effective now.  The past few nights is quite bad like someone whacked my rib cage with a hard object .  In order to get some sleep I had to increase the dosage of the pain killer.  I never expect to be in such a situation.  My blood pressure has shot up from low to high.  Just when I am recovering from my neck problem, this has to happen.

Delayed action

 Had a fall on 26.2.2024.  Quite a bad fall, backwards, in the toilet.  The oncologist had warned me not to fall down during the earlier period of my cancer treatment as my bones could not withstand the impact of the fall and will break in many parts.  Somehow I managed to put my left hand on my back to protect my spine. I could not move for a while and the oncologist's warning caused fear in me as I thought my bones and left hand had broken.

After this ordeal I did not feel any pain in any part of my body.  What a surprise as I expect to feel pain all over my body.  After one week still no pain.  On the 2nd week slight pain on my back and pelvic area. Eventually the pain become more intense.  After my Google, I understand that in a hard fall the brain will take some time to assess the "damage".  Sometime it will be weeks before the nerve will send the pain signal down to the body.

One month after the fall my neck, shoulder blades, both side of my ribs and pelvic area hurt so much that it is terrible to lie down to rest/sleep.  Now walking is a problem because of the pain.  

I wonder what else will happen after this.
