Well. Finally happened. Highsided and landed on my right shoulder. Luckily I was going fairly slow and got immediate help. Right now I'm waiting on surgery to pin my collar and am in agony. Anyone have any tips dealing with this type of injury?

Drugs. Take painkillers. Meditation works for some people. Stay distracted. I played FTL on an iPad for weeks when recovering from several broken bones.
