What is the worst physical pain you have ever endured?

@cherokeepatti: Got it , T Y Sweets . 🕊

@Paschar: I started drinking cranberry juice regularly after that kidney stone. No recurrence and it's been nearly 40 years.

@Serenitree: My problem with cranberry juice is that it's a diuretic and I have to pee about every two hours anyway!

Two weeks. Yikes. Four days was more than enough for me. It made me change my eating and drinking habits.

@OWTFWN: you are the living proof that hell is real, but it's spelled W-A-R.

@OWTFWN: I know what you are saying. Back in the late 1970s, I worked at a suicide prevention hotline for several years. I spoke to many young people, mostly men, who were victims of that dammed war. Not to say that any war isn't bad, but it was the victims of the Vietnam war that I heard from. The pain they were in, was unlike anything most people here could possibly comprehend. The things they saw, and had to do, just to survive, were unimaginable. No matter how they described it, I could sympathize, but couldn't imagine the reality. Nor would I want to. I wouldn't want to share their nightmares.

The rejection they faced from their countrymen, upon returning home, was, it seems, the final blow that killed, if not their bodies, certainly their spirits.

@IstillmissEP: yes. I begged to have someone just kill me and get it done.

I've had four kids. The last two with zero anesthesia. Back labour for one of them. None compared to the pain of passing one tiny kidney stone the size of a grain of sand.

It was indescribable agony and it went on for four days. I wanted to die. And when it was all over, I didn't have that warm soft bundle of love to make me forget the pain. All I had was residual pain and a very sore throats and severe laryngitis.

@Serenitree: [c=#BF0080]Oh wow. Mine was only 3 cm.. was yours bigger?[/c]

@pinkrainbowkisses: smaller. A grain of sand. But it wouldn't come through without getting stuck. Every time my kidney needed to empty, the stone blocked the opening and I felt like an icepick was being stabbed into my kidney. I hoped I would die.

@pinkrainbowkisses: did you mean 3 mm? 3 cm is huge. Like a golf ball.

Aww that's really painful. And I see so many patients come to us due to this. I work in a urgent dental care unit and it's surprising how many people come in due to a root canal flaring up. They're unpredictable despite what the dentist does. Sometimes the infection is so bad it can still cause agony after

I now the deep bone pain of which you speak. It is true agony. Enough to wish they'd amputate and be done with it.

So he was being honest with you. I can be totally clinical with you while he might be embarrassed. So keep in mind that I'd be happy to explain it all

@samueltyler2: thanks,,but really, no.

No problem. If you ever want one I am here. I was a practicing physician and so have no hang ups with this issue.

Legos do hurt. I have cursed them often.
