Thanks all, I'm doing better and better, just looked 12 steps from top to bottom. I was on top and hit every one of them. If the front door would of been open I would of been in the front yard and that would of been 2 more steps to the grass. (fast way down) :rofl:

Sucks to get old

Yeah, but it beats the alternative!

As an old fart, I agree with going to the doctor. Worst case scenario; you get some good drugs. Take care.

How are you today Ace? hope your neck is ok and the pain is easing up.After 25yrs as a paramedic I get twitchy when folks say their neck hurts after a fall.

I still say you should buy a pipe! In fact, I think that's such a good idea I might just fake a fall down the stairs

just so Mrs. Cortez would give me some extra slack in the PAD department. :rofl:

If you won't go to the doc's - try some contrast therapy for 20 minutes of heat (hot bath or shower) and 20 minutes of icing the afflicted areas several times a day. I really threw my back out a few years ago and this helped better than any pain pill.
However, I would probably lump all the advice together - Go see a Doc, Take some pain pills, Do some contrast therapy, And Buy a new pipe!
