Gee CC, what a crash!! I had a sternum/rib injury once (not a bike crash) and getting up from bed/moving in bed was the wrost. If you can get something to hold on to with your other hand (back of a chair or something like that next to the bed) it might help. Pillows; semi-reclining should help. Take care and heal!!

I would 4th what LBTC and Lightsabe r said
Also 2nd what DebW said about concussion. It is really not something to take lightly. Take it very very easy for a week or so. It's the only brain you've got.

OH NO!!!
Sorry to hear about your crash CC. Listen to the great advice here, there will be plenty of other brevets. Rest up and give your body time to heal.The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

(((((((((CC)))))))))))
Hope you feel better soon.
+1 what everyone else is saying about being kind to yourself.
I'm going to head off to look up some stuff on sternoclavicular dislocations. These are very different from the more typical acromioclavicular dislocations which is what people usually have when you say "dislocated clavicle".
I'll let you know if I find something interesting.Living life like there's no tomorrow.
