For me, a bad gallstone. Pain enough to make me throw up twice and they had to give me two doses of morphine before it worked well enough.
- Tooth ache
- Ear ache
- Calf cramp
Ive been stabbed and burned but the most painful has been a really bad ankle sprain where my ankle/foot went a full 90°. Still have 2 fucked up toes from it. Second was a tailbone injury that I still don't know what happened.
Appendicitis. I described it as feeling like a Chestburster from Alien was gestating inside me and ready to chew its way out of me at any second. I needed near-lethal amounts of painkillers while awaiting surgery to not feel like I was about to die.
For comparison, I broke my foot last year and it still wasn't anywhere near as painful as appendicitis.
Severe gastritis. It felt like I was run through by a spear. Fun times.
Realization, rejection, change, a swift kick to the nuts, growth.
Physically…can’t compare to much of this thread, probably one of my surgeries.
Emotionally though, losing my dad. Worse than I could have ever imagined and still so painful.
Call your parents/loved ones, folks. It’s worth the time and effort; if not for them, then for your future self.
Gout flair up
Physical - dry socket
Emotional - nawww I'm good lol
