View Full Version : In an extreme amount of pain
To make a long story short I ended up throwing myself out of my car to avoid being stung by a wasp as I am highly alergic. This happened about 3 weeks ago and my collar bone is still swollen and I am in more pain than I have ever felt. I am waiting for my insurance to be re instated and I will go to the doctor, I did go after it happened cause of the pain in my neck but it hurts so bad it hurts to swallow or move or sleep pretty much anything hurts it. Does anyone have any advice thanks.

Rig up a sling to immobilize your arm and shoulder. Put an ice pack on. Take some advil. Sit down and watch a movie. Sorry you're in pain. If you think it is broken, go to Walgreens, maybe, and get a brace. It will basically look like a figure 8 and will pull your shoulders back to keep your collar bone in place. There isn't much you can do for a broken collar bone.

Tell them your an Illegal.....in spanish.
Sound like you broke the collar bone. As expensive as it might be you should probably go see a doctor.
Yeah I broke mine but never went to the doc. Healed but took awhile.
Naproxin works better for me.

As long as there is no internal bleeding (swelling issue) the only thing that the Doc can do is give you Meds for the pain. Tylenol & Cold Packs are pretty much what they have prescribed since my Dirt Biking days... just gotta' make sure that you haven't dislocated something... the ER visit right when it happened should have dealt with that.
Sorry to hear that that darn insect got the better of you. Didn't you have your Epi-Pen with you?
how fast were you going at the time. was it like the movies or more like this:

hell yea ! work the system were mexicos sugar daddy
Daaaamn son! Very sorry to hear this! I know all about pain, and it sucketh, but I don't know about your particular flavor. I hope you get some relief quickly!
I'm not allergic to bees or wasps, etc., but I don't like the little fawkers and have learned over the years how to...instead of fearing them and trying to get away, I kill them without mercy with a pre-emptive strike. I'll smash 'em dead with a lightning strike, using the back of my hand if that's all I have handy. Best wasp-killers I've found are a ballcap and my wallet. Hit 'em hard and fast, and torture the survivors.

Check your PMs
You don't by chance have a video of this do you?
I could go into Anaphylactic shock if I get stung so I launched my self out of my car and kind of rolled to the left side and rolled over on my shoulder and neck and ended up on my feet. I wish I could have seem it I bet it looked cool. Anyway I did go to the doctor and they took xrays I would hope that they would have seen if something was wrong. My collar bone feels out of place and is still swollen, I dont even remember if you can dislocate a collar bone. I have meds I am taking that are fairly strong from being rear ended by a drunk driver and they are not helping. I have 4 disk out 2 are impinging on my spinal cord, when the ER doctor looked at my MRI awhile back he said holy crap how can you still walk. My spine looks like it has speed bumps in it, so on top of that I have to deal with this. Thanks for your input and advice guys.
Break both of your arms too... Serously though alieve helped me a bit with my arms but you need oxy. I know the pain in which you speak and I feel for you man!

i will say this...i went to the ER after my motorcycle accident and they missed a broken scapula, and it was way broken. Now a day they will fix your collar bone if it has moved more than 1 cm plus you get this sweet scar.

I would assume it was... since he broke when he hit.

Nothing we can do for ya post accident but if you have this issue then where was your kit? My mother suffers to the point that the last time she was stung in the car she pulled over and gave herself the shot. About 30 seconds between the time stung and the shot but she said she was already feeling it.
Trying not to sound to harsh but that kit would be on me 24/7 if it were me. [Kick2]
Ice. Ice. Ice. But you better be careful with that neck pain. I'm alergic too, and I'd be right behind you heading out the door.

I went into shock reading this... :rolleyes:
I trust you fired all rounds from whatever you had on you, too, just in case you got stung.
I want to see pics of your car post-wasp-bail-out & whatever its target happened to be.
Wow you jumped out of a moving car? What happened to the car?

He hasn't been on since 11:00AM, so let's hope he's been 5150'd.
Wow you jumped out of a moving car? What happened to the car? I was inside the car waiting to go to work, car was on a hill backed in not moving. I am going to see a doctor as soon as my insurance kicks in. It is hard to explain but I dove out of the car and rolled down the little hill backwards and to the left, which is were I keep my gun and wallet with big chain so I dont lose it when riding, those Items did not feel good as well. Again thinks guys for your help the ice has been helping alot. I dont know if I told you guys that I passed out from the pain at work, yes I still tried to go to work and they made me take an ambulance to the hospital.
dang man, maybe talk to your doctor about getting a script for a emergency needle so if you are stung you can stab yourself in the chest like on "the rock" and make it out ok.
hope things go well once you get to the doc.

Oh. I would have shot that bee/wasp from so far back, it would need a timewarp map to see it coming.

or if he was any kind of a good shot, karate kid....I mean really...who can't kill a fly with chopsticks....or hell for that matter the tim allen movie where his kid is from africa or something and shoots the fly with a blowgun. a porn star once told me: "why tuck and roll when you can suck and blow"...sounds like sound advice to me
So, just to sure, the car wasn't moving, you got scared and tripped leaving the car? I would not say scared I could die if I dont get to my E pen. Once the door was open I put my foot on the hump by the shifter and launched my self out of the car and rolled backwards and to the left all the and landed on my feet. I must have been in shock because I sat down and waited to go to work, when I passed out and got dizzy from the pain they called an Ambulance.http://i1127.photobucket.com/albums/l628/atrain18/GetAttachment.jpg
