What was the event that led to the most physical pain you've ever felt?

[Number1]

I used to get cluster headaches. I would go for a year or 2 headache free then it would start with one headache a week, then 2 and the frequency would increase until I was having several headache a day, 2 to 3 hours each and then it would stop altogether. This is pain on the level where I wanted to kill myself. I got lucky and the headache stopped altogether when I reached 40. Some people have them all their life. When I think about it, I can still feel the area on the side of my head that was affected, it feels different than the other side, ready to explode into an unbelievable amount of pain at any time.

Now, I have been doing renovating the house lately and last night, I violently put my power screwdriver bit into my tumb!!!!!!! It's all nice and black now, Talk about painful.

Getting married...the tux shop screwed up and when I picked up the suit , the shoes were a size too small. So, I spent three hours with my feet crammed into tiny shoes with a hangover while I got married.

I also took an arrow to the knee well, shin. No really .

Either sciatica that hindered me to stand straight or dropping a pallet on my big toe working at a store. That hurt like a BITCH! To this day the nail is still screwed up and I need to get it fixed this summer.

When I was in ROTC I was issued crappy shoes that I had to wear on a parade route. All, talk about foot hell!

i have had more pain then anyy one person should this last year I have had rotator cuff and I broke my right hand

 

[utahrebel]

Never really had anything physically bad happen to me.

I'd probably have to say the couple times in my life I've gotten a migraine were the worst.

You are blessed if that is all you have had

Came in here to say that, foley catherter. Just had it done 6 weeks ago 2 days after rotator cuff surgery when I stopped urinating. Went to the ER an they drained almost a full liter. Luckily a short pain but very intense. Coming out wasnt pleasant either but not nearly as bad.

Broken tooth, exposed nerve was pretty bad also. Idiot dentist in the Air Force pulled it without waiting for the anesthetic to take effect also.

Problems others seem to have had probably far outweigh this.

when I came out of a comma I ttook my own catheter out

It was a deadly combination of food poisoning and diverticulitis I got around 14 years ago. It completely wrecked me for days. I don't wish that on my worst enemy.

 

[utahrebel]

try a month in a comma and all the rehab after i still have problems from that and that was nineteen years ago

1) Ripped off my big toe nail in the shower.

I was in my shower. I was working for the post office at the time and I was running late. On top of that I didn't sleep because I was addicted to Unreal 2004 at the time. Stayed up all night!!

Anyway, I leaped out of the shower and my big toe nail caught the metal strip that held my standing shower together. It went right under my toe nail and pulled it straight up. I had blood everywhere. God it was so painful. Drove myself to the hospital so they could reattach the toenail. They did an excellent job.

2) I had surgery on my uthera.

This was when I was 12 years old. When I would urinate my pee would go everywhere. My mom took me to the doctor and he found the issue. My uthera was curved. It was causing me to urinate in all directions. So, they knocked me out, cut open my penis and reset the uthera. I woke up with a cast on my pecker. You wanna talk about pain? Everytime I urinated it was bloody and so painful. Of course, it got better with time.

That's it. I've had a hernia operation, root canal and mole removed.
