Narrative:
After the service, I was in the aft portion of the plane, cleaning, straightening, and recycling. Without warning, we had clear air turbulence. I left my feet twice. The second time going up, 5 inserts of soda started to slide out of the storage space between lavatory #2 and galley #5. I protected myself by raising my left arm, as I was rising, and they were sliding. Or arrival into dfw, I went to medical facility and was removed from the remainder of current trip and the next preceding trip.
