Default I was hit by a car and have questions about pain

Two weeks ago today I was walking home from a day on the beach and a car came out of a hotel lot and hit me. I was knocked on the ground right out of my flip flops. It appears most of the damage happened to my left side. She hit me on the right so I fell to the left. Thankfully, I had a pack on my back that I think saved me from hitting my head.

I am currently in a severe flare up. I have PN and fibromyalgia. It is so bad that they gave me a minimal script for Percocet that I did not fill until the other day. I have taken three over the last three days. I can't tell you how unusual this is for me. Never have taken them.

My questions are how long do most flare ups last. Also, My left arm up to my elbow and my hand is in pain when I move a certain way. I followed up with my doctor yesterday and have started a steroid dose pack. I had x-rays yesterday. This may sounds crazy but I swear I feel pain off and on in the right arm in the same areas. Is this even possible or is it just coming from the flare up. I know sounds nuts, right?

Any information you can offer would be helpful!
Thanks!!
