I assume you've been given codeine, because that's what they gave me.. and lot's of it. Don't take lots, only take as prescribed! Take a day off the Codeine every once and a while, trust me

There are unpleasant consequences if you don't.
Is it just one break? I had a compound fracture, and it didn't heal quite right... I have a half inch lump my left shoulder/chest area. Yeah... my advice, do the physio therapy, you'll probably end up with sick tendonitis in your shoulder.
On the topic, a funny little story... When I had my collarbone broken in two places(2" of free floatin clavicle

), I found out that the guy who had wired my house was incompetent... turns out what was supposed to be a ground wire was hot with 220V current! You know how when you get electrocuted, all your muscles tense up, really tight? Yeah.
I'm damn lucky I'm made of stone! Otherwise I might bleed, or worse yet, cry...
