I had my one year anniversary on nov 29, i went for my annual check , biopsy,, blood work and chest xray was done, on chest xray they found that i had thoracic compression fraction, transplant team did not think that it is anything to be concerned, they told me usually it will heal on its own, and asked me to c my GP, i saw her and she prescribed citracal,, which i have been taking,, but i think my symptoms are getting worse,, before i use to once in a while get pain in my lower back,, now my pain has spread to my upper back,, my head and my neck is stiff, last week i also went to see my eye doctor,, and he mentined to me that i seem to have a slightly crooked neck,, i m worried to death,, i also went to see a rhumatologist,, he is in the process of doing the tests, he has done,, blood test,rays of upper and lower back,, did 24 hr urine test,, and im schedeuled for bone density test on FRI,, i believe my rhumatologist is taking the right approach,, i really really hope that this gets fixed soon,, cause it has curtailed my exercise ability. Has anyone had this experience,, any advice or suggestions shall be highly appreciated.

Merry Christmnas
