I Want to Hear Your Most Painful Life Experience

The worst pain I have ever been in was caused by allergic reaction. Basically it cause a scabby rash formed on the inside of my throat and it was swollen . I couldn’t eat solid food at all and it was too painful to try. For about 1 maybe 2 months I ate only mashed food and a lot of yogurt, ice cream and milk.
Cause I was a little kid I was crying most of the nights and days. After a few days mum dumped me with my Nan cause she couldn’t handle me and a 1 year old.
So for the time I was with Nan.

I’m still going through it. Shingles. That pain can last for months if not years. It’s deep in the nerves too, so medications can only dull it. The first few weeks are a nightmare.

@Peapod My doctor won't give the vaccine to me. He says it's because I am 75 years old.

@greenmountaingal I am really sorry to hear that and I think that is ridiculous since the older we get, the more likely we will have permanent nerve damage. I know I have nerve damage after being 6 months out from it. But I am happy I got the first vaccine and just patiently waiting to get the second one. I never want this again.
