Holy crap that HURT!!

[Rumur]

Working on my truck yesterday and partially collapsed a lung!! Scared me, my wife, my son, my dog, and several people at the hospital.
Once I got there and told them I couldn't breathe, they went to work on me like a NASCAR Pit crew. They said my face was ash gray and my lips were turning blue. After an overnight hospital stay I am back home and resting! The worst pain I have ever felt!!

The truck fall on you? Glad youre still with us.

Ditto to both of these!

Did the truck fall on you, or was it a burst bleb? I have suffered the latter, and, yes, it really is painful. Glad you're okay!

The truck did not fall on me, just a burst bleb. Glad it's over.

I'm sure you know this, but almost any hard blow to the chest can cause a bleb to burst and put you right back in the ER. Be careful!

That's what the Doctor told me. Never want to go through that ever again!!

The funny thing is that even though you dropped a car on yourself, you're still easily a better mechanic than me.

Hell, all I was doing was changing spark plugs. Pretty expensive plug change.

I stand corrected.......
