Small accident

[Proz]

Better to be safe than sorry and get yourself checked out .... sounds painfull 
Hopefully everything will be ok though 

[Big_Al]

tremadol are the best pain killer....i no....but forget sleep...

But don't take them unless they are prescribed for you.  .  some possible serious side effects I'm told   

[Sir Tigger KC]

I think the fact you blacked out is the bit to worry about....    Hope you got/getting checked out James!

[bored bigyin54]

go and get it checked james mate you dont wont to wake in the mornin and cant move that happent to me years ago and i said the same if its not better by the morning and then i cant even get out off bed

Few things to consider.

1. If you were falling backwards and blacked out (prior to hitting the deck), the likelyhood of you hitting your head is nearly 100%. Unless you were suspended on something and that held your head from contact with the ground. Or there was someone around to support your head?

2. How long were you out for? did anyone see this happen?

3. Fractured coccyx would usually mean you cant sit on it. Sounds like something else might be broken, certainly worth x-raying to rule out a fracture.

Hope it turns out to be just soft tissue injury with no lasting damage.

Sorry to hear about your fall james , hope you are ok and have had it checked out . Like the others said id be concerned about it esp the blackout bit . Take it easy

James It sounds like you have being over doing it again.
Get you back xrayed it happened to me over 20 years ago. A chair slipped(pulled) away from me when I was sitting down and I actualy snapped my coccyx. Even now i cannot sit on a hard surface for long before it starts to hurt again.

All the best James

When you said you'd had a small accident, I thought you'd coughed and **** yourself.

Seriously though, get yourself checked out matey, blackouts are not funny.

[Varche]

Are you back from the hospital yet? 

[the alarming man]

tremadol are the best pain killer....i no....but forget sleep...

tramadol ARE not the best pain killer as they mess with your head,they are addictive,and they are know too cause drowsiness..trust me i know...not addicted but do use them..should not be taken unless prescibed as they are a controlled drug...

[PhilRich]

Really sorry to hear this James, I hope it has turned out to be nothing too serious & you are soon 100% again!

[pauls]

James.. how are you??

[JamesV6CDX]

I felt quite nausious earlier, but am not feeling too bad now.

Just been told to take it easy and don't overdo things while it heals
