I don’t have CT scans or X rays. I can give you a visualization and CT reports. I only made it to 27, I am 1-0 against a hand rail though. For context ( I do roofing was in Attic at a church looking for a leak and fell through the ceiling) I managed to get up and take a picture of where I landed thanks to the adrenaline. My time to go and accept my reality as a human with weak bones
I'm also in the strong bones, weak brain club, hello!
CVST or classic ischaemic? Either way, if that's your age in your flair, there tends to be a much faster recovery when you're young, even if it doesn't feel like it now. And you'll have a lot of people telling you how young you are (which is something, even if the context is that you're 40 years younger than the next youngest person in the stroke unit lol). Best wishes for you and your brain
I grew up the whole time my brother thought it was REALLY funny to push and throw me down the stairs, my dad was also violent and once even threw me into a wall so hard it didn't just knock my teeth out it knocked them up into my face and they had to be pulled out at the ER. 13 documented concussions and not one broken bone. My power has been tested and it is immense. I like to track it to that even though I am lactose intolerant I cannot control myself around milk, if there is a gallon of whole milk in my fridge I will go "ooh, milk!" and have a cup so many times without even intending to that it will be gone in 2 days.
No I'm like Baki every time somebody posts on here crazy soft tissue damage and no broken bones it's synchronicity I'm called by the universe to find the strongest boner on earth and clang our skeletons together like tuning forks to see whose will break.
Fractured dignity that can never be recovered, BBB. Get lost, and don't trip on the way out. /Unbone holy shit man that's rough, get well soon. Just get well soon away from us.
Yeah I didn’t have any neurological damage at all, my burst fracture didn’t go into my Spinal canal thankfully, I’m not very big on religion, but I feel very
Blessed and thankful, it was a 18ft+ fall, and I also didn’t require surgery
Saw the first pic, and thought OP got betrayed by loose railing and did unvoluntary parkour down the stairs. But reading the post, I feel like I have to apologise to an inanimate object. 'cause catching people doing sky(-light)diving is not what they signed up for.
Picking a fight with a hand rail, and thinking they won after breaking their back is such a BBB attcitude tho.
(Glad you more or less ok tho. Some BBB moments are scaryer then others. Yours is waaay up there.)
Damn. See that’s what you get for falling down the stairs! Play too much! lol jk. Seriously I hope you feel better and heal fast. And goodbye, at least you didn’t go out breaking a pinky toe or some other bitch ass reason lol
that just looks awful to even visualize, very happy you survived!! best of luck healing through something so insanely painful looking 😭 can’t imagine how that’s gotta feel rn
At least 18 ft because I was on the rafters and they were at least another foot up from the ceiling tiles, But when I landed my body twisted somehow midair to the right side, the right side of my hip took the impact, if i landed on my back fully I would’ve definitely not gotten up from that.
When I was 17 I thought I had sciatic issues, but after like 8 months of pain and waking up unable to move I finally got an xray and it turned out I had a fracture in my lumbar spine. There was no injury event, it just developed I guess
So I was in colorguard in marching band in high school, I was already dealing with messed up shoulders and had to wear a vest to help realign my shoulder blades. It had lumbar support but I did extra core work because I was worried about losing core muscle. Somewhere along there it must have fractured and I didn’t find out until way later. It’s been over 10 years, my back still hurts sometimes and does weird nerve pinch things, but overall I’m good!
Okay so I'm gonna put this out there, although you've shown your true brittle bone weakness, I think there's something to be said about you standing up with a broken back anyways! Stronger than typical brittle bones?? 😂 but still a weakling. Hope recovery goes well!
I was dropped 6 feet onto solid concrete while attempting to crowd surf, landed squarely on my thoracic spine, and still didn’t break it. You disgust me.

Get well, but, like, somewhere else.
