The pain thread.

[Antimeasure]

What is the worst pain you have ever experienced?

i came back from surgery today, my intestances wasn't in order - so now i have a scar and it feels like they forgot sumthing in my belly, hurts like hell.. real lame. Cant do anything. Fuck, and theres sun outside but i like hospitals, the personel who took care of me and gave me drugs on regular basis where nice n' friendly... So i shouted at em and threw needles when they where around.

Scale 1-10 in pain feel at least 5
fuck the pain... Morphin anyone?

I've had some of these really nasty stomach and lower back aches, but they're tough to put on scale, since they always hit me when I'm supposed to be concentrating (like driving some heavy vehicle or operating other machinery) so the level of annoyance makes me kinda "forget" about the pain, if you know what I mean.

The pain that hurt the most? Propably some of those mechanical blunt force traumas or whatever you get when you get a little bit too uncareful around big cattle. But at worst they'd go somewhere like 7. I'm lucky to have not been through bone cracking or anything of that kind, so my "pain experiences" are rather limited.

About three years ago, I was at a gathering of friends and unknowns-who-walk-in-off-the-street, drunk, with other drunk people, when a friend who shall remain nameless (but shall, for the purposes of this illustration be referred to as 'William') decided it would be 'fun' to wave an (rather menacing, in the hands of a drunken twit) axe (which I can only assume came from the shed) around and shout quotations from various (moronic) films.

So, in between deciding I wanted as much distance as possible from dear 'William', and maintaining my (high) blood alcohol level via (lethal) home brew, I tripped (over what in retrospect I can only assume was a person), and William decided to swing the axe a bit too close to my left ankle.

Fortunately ? someone in attendance was vaguely sober and rational, and so I had a nice, relaxing, amusing trip the hospital, and so I didn't lose my foot (which, apparently, was hanging by some flesh when 'William' finally decided to inform others of what the axe had done). I still walk with a bit of a limp, though, and I've got this wonderful smattering of scar tissue too, which is nice. Intolerably, it kept me from my fencing for two months.

Pain - 6-7-8 ? I don't know, as I have few suitably painful life experiences with which to gauge it. Fuck numbers, in this they tell one nothing much at all. I'd imagine my state of being pickled helped with that, somewhat. It was an inconvenience to the doctors, however.

Overall, it was worth it.

I feel off a tree. The branch which broke was faster than me, hovewer, and I landed with my back on it. Not pretty. I had troubles to breathe for a good few minutes, so I nominate this entry

10, when I popped my cherry.

Did the branch impale your torso, Koki ? Because if it didn't, you do not yet know the meaning of the word, pain. No.

Yeah, I fell out of a tree at the tender age of six, rather similarly to Koki, except he isn't me and it probably wasn't the same tree, or the same time, and so on. I felt this awful pain in my side, so in between howling in pain, testing the work capacity of my tear ducts, and trying not to move too much - I look down and saw the branch ! Bloodied, splintered and holding my recently liberated kidney, rather as a beggar would grasp a handful of notes and small change. Desperate. Fearful. Reluctant.

It was okay, though, as my mother put it on ice and we had it in a pie when I came home from hospital. Best meal of my life. I had the last laugh though (and believe me, that bastard was laughing), chopped the fucker down four months later.

There was also that time I was decapitated. But that is a tale for another day.

Home surgery, a long time ago. My dad was a surgeon. When I got an infection in my big thumb, he proposed to just cut it open, clean, and disinfect. Without any painkillers or sedatives. Either the scalpel blade was too dull (highly unlikely), or my skin was too sensitive, but slowly cutting the most sensitive part of your body (with exception of anus and the genitals, of course) sucked ass. Frankly, it would've been easy on everyone if they'd have given me a shot of hard liquor and waited for a few minutes.

On the other hand, I'm a wuss, so....

[St. Toxic]

The "punctured eye-ball" scenario, didn't feel well at all after that one.

[Antimeasure]

iwe had a couple of incidents in my life, this is my first time i was ever hospitalized.. i split have my lip, cut a hole in my chin and found teargas torches in the forest..

And about the numbers, it was the doctors and nurses who gave me that scale 1-10.. and it can be very relative, it's all up to the guys imagination about pain...

[Kizmiaz]

What is the worst pain you have ever experienced?

When the painkillers effects ceased after my hernia operation. Halfdrugged from aenesticic...whatever the word, my language sent my
"roommate" and his visiting family fleeing to the common room. Other than that, a night totally cramped up before I realised I had to get to the skeleton hotel where they diagnosed me with prostatitis comes pretty high.

[Brahmin]

I've never felt anything I would call painful... Where's naked lunch when you need him...?

[St. Toxic]

Kizmiaz, what the hell are you blabbering about?

[Antimeasure]

Naked_Lunch should be trown off a bus in the middle of the desert and shot twice in the back of his head.

PS: Naked_lunch is not needed, or wanted. Take a hike

[Brahmin]

I concur.

[Blargh]

The level of antipathy your comment evokes, Antimeasure, suggests an altogether slower demise would be better suited to Naked_Lunch.

Fed some barbed wire, perhaps, and then dragged through box thorns by the wire, perhaps ? I DON'T KNOW ?

[Antimeasure]

It hurts when i laugh

[S4ur0n27]

Anyone, pull a joke.

I broke my tailbone the other day (I think) D:

Shucks.

Why me? Did I miss something today?

Antimeasure - Good tidings and tits to you!
