Worst Pain you have Ever been through???

[G.P.girl]

ah, well i havent really been in any serious serious pain. but i've had really really really bad splints at times.

Endometriosis attacks and passing out were no fun. Neck surgury was bearable but back surgery was a real eye opener. But for me, the worst pain is emotional. Losing my parents and Cody was the worst pain ever. Physical pain eventually subsides, but emotional pain stays for a long long time.

Emotional pains are worse than physical, for me, but, my worst physical pain would have to be. . .. . walking on a broken ankle for a year, and not knowing it was broken, every step hurt, but all the doctors said it would heal on its own, and that it wasnt broken, but, it was, after I went to another doctor, and they did surgery, and shaved off bones that were rubbing together, and the ones that were all jagged from the bone that was missing . That was probably one of the worst things. . .

Wisdom teeth! I had all 4 pulled at once and it didn't show in the x-ray, but one of the roots was wrapped around the jaw bone and when they pulled it, it broke a small piece of my jaw. I was in such pain for a week and black and blue from my neck to my eye.

This is a toss up between when I blew my knee out playing softball and had to have it drained twice with a needle that looks like it could have been used for a HORSE!
Or.... when I had a spinal tap and instead of only taking 15 minuets and having a needle pierce my spine 2 or 3 times it took and hour and 15 minuets and I was jabbed in my spine 14 times!!! Then I was on my back for a week with a spinal headache.
Yeah, now that I think about it....the spinal tap was MUCH worse!!!!!!

pitc9, furrykidsmother, k9karen, toby's my baby: Oh my such pain!. . .

The worst emotional pain that I have gone through was when I had depression not too long ago.

Child-birth, pre-epidural. Women say they "forget" the pain once it's over but I'm here to tell you that I will NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER forget the way I felt. Ever.


Ever.




Never ever.



In a gazillion years.



Ever.

Is it really that bad? You're scaring me away from having children when I'm older! I can't stand pain at all and will do whatever I can to stay away from it.

I've had a lot of physical & mental hurts that I can not even post here.
But for ones I can post here I have it tied between 3 different hurts, they all hurt REALLY bad.

My eptopic pregnancy, pre-surgery (only the day or two right before the surgery hurt realy bad) & post-surgery (the first week or so I was home which was actually 1.5 weeks after the surgery, I didn't have the morphine drip anymore lol). I did die during surgery, they revived me thank god.

A Kidney infection. Yes it hurt that bad, I was misdiagnised for weeks & weeks before I was admitted to the hospital where I had to stay for almost a week because it was so bad. They said a couple/few more days & I would probably wouldn't of made it.

My broken hand bones & tendons/ligaments, granted this one only hurt REALLY bad for about 4 or so hours until it was set all back in place but when it was first broken boy oh boy did it really hurt. It still hurt for a couple/few weeks afterwards but not nearly as bad as it did at first, not even close.



Boy some of yous really should count your blessings. Actually we all should we have some real lucky folks on PT!
Glad that each one of us is here to tell our stories! HUGS to us all!

Everyone's pain thresholds are different. What is excruciating to me may be little more than cramps to you, so don't be scared off. Even if you are in a lot of pain, get the epidural! It felt like a little bee sting and after I got it, I felt so much better (read: couldn't feel ANY contraction, my husband had to tell me when I was having them by looking at the monitor), I took a nap!! I'll have another child, two if finances allow, I'll just be asking for the epidural as soon as I can get it.

All childbirth situations are different also, I had unproductive back labor that was horrible, that doesn't happen to everybody, and frankly that was easier than dealing with a teen

[Anita Cholaine]

The worst physical pain I had was when my kneecaps dislocated. The pain was awful, and it happened to me sooo many times in both knees....

Fortunately, I had my left knee surgery in december, and I'll have the right knee in July, so it won't happen anymore....

About emotional pains... It's better and healthier not to remember them, I don't want to feel depressed....

Hi, Natali, join the "pain in the knee" club! I know exactly what you've going through! Right now my left knee is doing great. I can do just about everything now!

[Twisterdog]

Childbirth!

Followed by breaking my knee ... twice.

Followed by having a root canal without anesthethic. (I'm resistant to anesthethic.)

[Desert Arabian]

My migraines...which always results in me blacking out & having to be rushed to the Emergency Room. Aside from that it would have to be when I got kicked full force by a horse on the shin bone. I have a permanent bump on my shin from that.
