sliding on ice and falling off of a loading dock , I shot out into the middle of the dock breaking my back , rupturing 3 discs (L-2,L-3,L-4) pinched my Sciatic Nerve and put bone fragments into my Spine, Then I slid backwards down into the retaining wall and broke my Neck and tore my Rotator Cuff in my Shoulder !
Then the surgeon misdiagnosed me ,didn't check or xray my neck (which has since healed wrong) and Operated on stuff that didn't need fixing !
talk about your bad day ! I have been living with pain every day since 1983 ,the year of the accident, and am now forced to take Percocet and Morphine just so I can walk and live a barely acceptable life !

I've had a lot of physical pain in my lifetime. I had to have double knee replacements. That was not fun. I also had gall stones, that one hurt and was not fun. But I have had Cancer more than once and was actually terminal one time. Even all the morphine they give you cannot dull the pain. It doesn't go away for a while, it just stays there. I have so much faith in God that I knew that even if I passed it was good because I was going to a better place. I went home from the hospital because I didn't want to die in the hospital. God wasn't through with me yet because I pulled through and have made it through Cancer again since then. Now when someone says they have Cancer and go through Chemo and Radiation therapy and tomo therapy or whatever I can really understand where they are coming from. I lost all my hair, my teeth and a lot of my immune system, but I was afforded another chance!!! So I live to celebrate and tell others that there is hope. But I think back to the pain and truthfully don't know how I stood it!!! God gives us strength when we think we have no more. He lifts us up in our lowest moments. He is the most amazing one!! I truly believe that pain is a test, one of many we have in our lives. Oh yes, childbirth, but the end result washes that one clean!!!!

The most horrific pain I ever felt, and I remember it as if it just happened, was when I was about two years old, toddling around the house bare naked. I sat down on our wooden floor and was trying to lift my cousin's metel dumbell, it probably weighed about five but no more than ten lbs. It was the metel kind of weight, with a metel bar between them held on my allen screw clamps, the usual type of weight lifting dumbell.
I was just a baby really, and I dropped it on the head of my (yeah the big fella took the full brunt of a dropped metal dumbell on the head) smashing my jones between the weight and the floor. I vaughly remember my mother frantically asking me why I was screaming, and when I was able to talk, I showed her the damaged member. Everything was still attached, but the intense agony of the moment has never been equaled in the past 46 years.
When ever someone says "on a scale of 1 to 10 how does the pain compare to the worst pain you ever felt being 10" I remember the moment like it JUST happend.
I have suffered a broken neck, a skull fracture, countless lesser injuries from being hit with a baseball bat in a street fight to knife wounds and even been hit in the face with a 1968 Pontiac Lemonds, but nothing compares to crushing your johnson between a wood floor and a metal dumbell.

The most physical and mental pain I have ever endured would have to be 13 weeks of Marine boot camp on Parris Island and being totally out of shape.

well, the last incident i can remember is breaking my ankle ice skating on New Years Eve..(go figure)..the worse pain ever..1. because I didn't know it was broken so i forced myself to walk on it and I drove home..i thought i just sprained it a little. I bought an ace bandage, took some pain killers, elevated my leg and went to sleep..next morning my foot was big as the house, and i had like 2 blood clots..went to the ER and found out I broke it in 3 places..*ouch*..did more damage to it by driving and walking on it..

i have 3 that were equally painful:
1: my tattoo at the bottom of my back-good lord that hurt!!
2: tonsillectomy: u seriously CANNOT swallow!!!
3: laparoscopy: couldn't stand up straight for nearly a week.
They say medical staff are the worst hospital patients and i would certainly agree with them in my case!!!!!

It's a tie between when I broke my arm from falling off of a horse and when I got a good cut on the tip of my thumb from a table saw. I lost interest in horses since then, and all of my thumb is still there, but my fingerprint will be especially unique with that little scar on it.

Yeah. I'm gonna have to go with "child birth" as well. Not to mention the half hour of stitching and the 2 weeks of healing afterwards.

Getting my ribs broken and a metal bar being put in my chest. I was in the hospital for 5 days. I just recently got a bill from the insurance company denying the claim. They want my check for about $109,000 now.
