OH Anne I hate hearing this. After everything you went through why can;t kids just be a bit more attentive and not travel with friends? I would get checked out anyway. I can;t understand why the police did not interview witnesses and also take pictures to assign primary driver blame. It is not that difficult when you look at damage. Always keep a camera in the car or cell phone with camera for this reason. It is a lazy cop that does not assign primary driver guilt!
Watch the cough, you do not want to be getting fluid in the lungs. didn't you have the bad reaction with that? The brachial nerve is right across the collar bone too, it may be sending whacky pain signals out to thumb area. But I would get an xray to be sure. One thing I found is valium as a muscle relaxant. helps with the painful receptors too. Gee, maybe you need a pillow suit to wear when driving! Feel better soon, di

OK, I'm ready to drive now! I am the one that had the pleural effusion (fluid not IN the lung but in the pleural space). Still have some deep congestion, but it no longer hurts to cough. And what you say about the brachial nerve must explain why my rt thumb is going whacky... twitches constantly. Got a rental vehicle yesterday... a Nissan Titan V8 King Kab p/u. So if the pillow suit doesn't work the "rent-a-tank" should protect me. Allstate just called, my car is TOTALED. Damn.

That would make the thumb twitch. There is a spot between the collar bone adn the arm pit, if you touch it is it sore, More sorer? Try some ice on it if you tolerate it a bag of peas or blue ice bag. ALso 4 Advil if you do not have Toradol should calm that nerve branch. I hope you feel better soon. di

Anne- i'm so sorry to hear about hte car wreck. thats the last thing anyone needs. I was involved in an accident in Feb, and the only rental that was available (this was right after the tornadoes came through) was a brand new Toyota Tundra 4-door. It literally had 300 miles on it AND the drive-out tags. Rent-a-tank indeed!!
Anywho... i hope you feel better, and that those nerves calm down.
