Whiplash claim?

I was a car accident and did not seek medical attention I now believe I suffered from minor whiplash during the incident . I recorded the conversation me and the at fault driver and at the end she asks me if I’m okay and I reply no I have a horrible migraine. If this enough for the claim? Can I tell their insurance to add a whiplash claim or do I have to sue for that? She was also already determined to be at fault FYI. Another worry is that they will total out my car and not give me enough to replace it with a car since my current car value was low since it’s old.

Your recording of a PRIVATE conversation does NOTHING to help your case as they admitted nothing and in most states if the "at fault" driver was made aware of this recording because they saw this Yahoo post or someone sent it to them, they could sue you for millions.
You would have to see a doctor and prove you have whiplash to have a case and they can counter sue for your FEDERAL crime of "wiretapping" so in the end you will still owe THEM alot of money and possibly do prison time.
And yes, they will likely total your car.

You have to get medical treatment to be considered for payment for a whiplash.  You can't get anything by just saying you suffered a whiplash.
You should get "Fair market value" for your totaled car.  FMV is what other like cars, in like condition are selling for in your area at the time of the accident

Go to your Doctor immediately and get examined. If you have problems that were caused by the accident you then hire an attorney to handle your case. Don't contact the other driver or speak with their insurance company!

Seek medical attention and advice the insurer.

You say your car is old and so its value is low.  For the discussion let me just have a hypothetical stab in the dark of its value and say it is about $2,000. (to replace it.)  

If that is its value that is what the at fault drivers is responsible for..    You cant expect her insurer to pay you $3,000 for a vehicle worth $2,000.
