Whiplash a Bad way to start a week
So like the title says what a shitty week it's been so far, there's been several things that has made it real shitty but this kinda sticks in my craw a little more than the other shitty things my so called good buddies pulled on me so far this week..lol, Well I was coming home from taking the wife to work since we're having vehicle troubles and ar down to 1 right now and it's raining pretty good, I have wipers on intermittent so I look down to turn wippers over to high and as I laid my eyes back on the windshield all I seen was brake lights and airbags!! It happened so fast I didn't even have time to touch the brakes!! Well I got out of the blazer and walked away without a scratch.. but holy shit the next morning (tue) and this morning (wed)it's all I can do to type this, due to forearm pain,backache,headache, and a stiff neck from hell!!! I would guess this is what's called whiplash? Never had it but it sure sounds like it.. I know one thing it hurt like hell!
Even though I rear ended the tractor trailor I wasn't ticketed because a car had came over on the truck switching lanes this is why the big rig was all but stopped and I had the cruise set on almost 70.. I've from 0 to 70 many,many times but this is the first time I went from 70 to 0 in a couple seconds!! I was really lucky and I've thanked God several times daily ever since that I was alone and didn't have any of my girls with me or it's highly likely one of them would have been killed or hurt badly! Ok vent over.. blazer crash.jpg |

You've had a rough week my friend, but thank God you're alive. Find a good (with referrals) chiropractor and you should recover quickly.
You're in my prayers...and the kids as well. Get well soon! |

That ICC bar on the truck is unforgiving Bro. Glad you're able to tell the story. Being a trucker I've seen too many times a car do what you did and no on was able to walk away. That's a pretty good crash test on a blazer. I'd be getting a new one just like it.

I Was also in a car accident, I was rear ended and felt ok that day, the next 3 days where ALOT of pain from whip lash. then months later spinal issues. 6 yrs later now and my back is in pain daily + migraines and anxiety from the stress/issues.
Just because you walked away does NOT mean your fine. You should go to doc and get xrays and then in a few months get xrays again (MRI's) Hope you are ok. Atleast I got a medical MJ card out of it.... :-/ I dont even like the stuff anymore most of time but im in so much pain.... and pain pills and/or xanax is not something I want to take for life.
