very true....if I hadn't mostly rolled onto my back/hip in the original accident, it would have been way worse, I actually broke the ulna just after the wreck in a drug induced/cranky/lack of sleep stupor walking fall, but we found during that x-ray that there had been a smaller break in the bike wreck.

Good question...because I will say that broken bone pain is the worst that I've ever felt. And I still feel it. I've been told that you'll feel broken bone pain for years.
