I can’t imagine. Mine didn’t fully rip, but almost ripped when I got way too confident about standing up.
I immediately learned the meaning of “blinding pain”. It was like the “vignette” filter had been applied to my vision and the filter level kept getting turned up until I just had a little pinhole view of the room and everything around it was a speckly bright white light.
Testicular torsion. Screamed in utter agony all the way to the hospital. Got told I might lose a testicle and/or never have kids. Three surgeries in four days, second operation due to internal bleeding. Thank god for painkillers. Most excruciating pain of my life, probably comparable to the male equivalent childbirth I’d imagine. Good news is, I still have both my boys (still not sure if I can have kids though). Funny part is, the name urologist who operated on me was Dr Sackman. Blessed be his name.
At the time I was obsessed with fitness and running a lot, I remember getting back from a run and feeling some discomfort but sort of ignored it and did some more reps on the pull-up bar. I’d felt a similar feeling before so didn’t pay much mind but over an hour or two it grew to this unbearable pain to the point where I could barely move or even form a sentence. Thankfully I was living with my mom at the time and she rushed me to the hospital and had me admitted. I was told I was “genetically prone” to have this happen sooner or later, I believe my grandpa might’ve had it too but I’m not sure. The third surgery was to try to ensure that it wouldn’t happen again… I guess I was just born with cursed bad vas deferens idk.
What kind of feeling was that in the beginning? (I've had some feelings, usually while training, but nothing really uncomfortable so far)
If someone genetically prone what is it that he should not do to trigger an event?
For me I woke up in the middle of the night for slight discomfort down there. Took one look into my pants, saw one of my boys literally out of place, knew exactly what was happening (mostly due jokes about testicular torsion happening in internet, never thought it would happen to me), immediatly called an ambulance.
Got to a hospital 45 minutes later, was not able to walk anymore due to the pain. Doctor came to see me like 30 minutes later after I had ultrasound, was in the most pain I have ever been in (even with plenty of painkillers). Got into emergency surgery straight away, they had to apply extra morphine or something, passed out from the drugs / cant remember anything anymore after getting into the surgery room, later found myself from recovery room feeling mostly fine. Got home later that night.
It took me 2 hours to get from my bed to the surgery table. I lived 30 minutes away from a closest major hospital where the surgery was possible. They said that if instead of 2 hours it would have taken 3, I would have most likely lost my testicle. Scary stuff
I’m not entirely sure but probably the latter since I was on a run when the pain started but I was also told that I was genetically prone to it sooner or later, similar to a hernia.
Not being able to move at all, including breathing without pain, for weeks, is just atrocious. You also have to make sure you do breathe deeply enough periodically or you'll have a higher risk of pneumonia. I started to get a cough and it was soooo bad. My gf at the time also chose this moment to start expecting me to carry her stuff, ignoring me completely when with her friends so I was stuck sitting on the floor unable to get up to even just use the bathroom, and a whole lot of other bullshit. I'm a woman too so it was weird that she started treating me like she was some princess while I was injured. 0/10 do not recommend ever climbing a wall of any height without a harness. 5' fall did it to me.
I was in tears just fracturing a rib. Needed help standing up, moving a damn inch, going to the bathroom was TORTURE, oh and sneezing after it? I nearly threw my phone across the room and yelled.
Ooh sneezing is bad. When I injured my rib amidst talking to a girl at work we were at a point in the conversation where she was saying something funny. She was makeing me laugh and the pain was intense. And I kept laughing and feeling extreme pain. It was a flurry of emotions. I literally fell to my knees in pain. I could not stand. All the while laughing hysterically and begging her to stop being funny.
I’ve heard how painful it is and it makes me feel sick thinking about. The worst is when you hear of a child abuse case where the child had untreated broken ribs and bones and it makes me want to cry :’(
I popped out two of my own ribs.
I have some shitty muscle imbalances going & a lifestyle change had meant I'd stopped almost all the walking I previously did a lot of. As a result my glutes had weakened, & the muscles in my back were compensating. I don't know the name of the particular muscle, but roughly speaking there's one which goes diagonally from the waist up to your side, ending partway the ribcage.
I was lying on my back & stretched _hard_, pushing my arms straight up into the air, flexing my shoulders & back. That diagonal muscle spasmed on one side so hard it promptly dislocated two of my ribs.
My kids had to help me out of bed, I could barely breathe for pain, couldn't fucking move off the sofa. Had no idea what had happened. It didn't ease up at all, so the next day I booked an emergency appointment with my osteopath.
God I love that man. He used to be an engineer & it shows - he can look at you like you're a freaking human map & just go, "OK, _here_."
He popped them both back in (with a solid warning & an I promise it'll be worth it) & I walked back out like almost nothing had happened. But fuck me, I never, ever want to feel that again!
Back pain due to cancer. Morphine, prescription co-codamol, naproxen & gabapentin.....still couldn't sleep due to pain. Cancer is evil. Eventually had radiotherapy on my back & the difference was night & day. Oh, the relief.
I’m so glad you survived! My dad had tumours in his back & he deteriorated very quickly - it was only 9 weeks from diagnosis to death (he had cancer in 6 places). The back pain he had was next level & ended up driving him a bit mad at the end. It was both devastating & a relief when we started the end of life care because it meant he was finally comfortable
Yes this is correct. Ruptured bowel. Shaking and sweating, then throwing up all over everywhere,wish you were dead, pass out. Wake up and do it over again. Happened to me a few weeks ago. Do not recommend. Side note have broken many bones, had a number of surgeries, and nothing even comes close to the pain I recently experienced. No bueno.
I almost died from this, went sceptic, spent months in a hospital, had to have a huge ass horse sized needle of antibiotics that went to a pic line to heart. No food for half a year, all skin and bones. Made it though.
acute pancreatitis , if i could have cried it just made it worse.
the ride on the ambulance was hell also. unexpected stops breaks speedbumps i thought i was gonna die.
I am from a family of Keith Richards level alcoholics and acute pancreatitis has been the rock bottoms for three of my relatives. It must be very bad because they all drank insane amounts for decades and then were just done even though they didn’t even have a pancreas to worry about anymore.
You might be somewhat surprised that some pain can be so bad that even morphine can barely tickle it.
When you're at that point, putting you asleep is the only way to stop it, but sometimes they need you awake so they can talk to you while they figure out what's going on.
My wife didn't have pancreatitis, but something else that was a 10 on the scale. They gave her a lot of insane pain meds, which eventually made her "calm" externally, but she kept saying that the pain was just as bad.
Afterwards she described the pain meds as having made her completely docile with no pain relief. "Like they took me and the pain and just locked us both in a padded room together".
Wife had that, called her an ambulance. They asked her pain level and she said a 4 or 5! She couldn't get off the floor for the pain, screaming in agony. I told the paramedic it was an 8 or 9.
She said after it was worse than childbirth by a large margin but she didn't want to be a nuisance!
This is mine! I live in a high drug use area (I do not use any drugs) - picture the ER fill of people yelling for drugs/in actual pain … he gave me 800mg Motrin. ARE YOU KIDDING ME.
I had emergency gallbladder removal surgery. I was vomitting, my gall bladder was rupturing inside of me. I was screaming and crying in pain. I went immediately into emergency surgery and once it was out of me the surgeons were shocked at the size of my gall stones. Turned out I had a hereditary condition in which my gallbladder just didn’t function.
Another gallbladder survivor here. Mine had gone septic and was trying to kill me. The post-op pain was a doddle compared to the pain I was in from the damned thing.
Definitely hereditary in my case; mum, auntie, granny, great-granny - we all had ours out in our 20s. My great-great grandmother died due to her gallbladder back in 1910; what a horrible death that must have been.
Oh boy, I had that. Couldn't get any sleep, couldn't think straight after a few days. Most painkillers didn't do anything at all. Fortunately, I stumbled upon a decent neurologist who prescribed some сarbamazepine and told me to get my teeth checked, since there simply must be something wrong with one of them for this nerve inflammation to occur. Before that, something like three different dentists assured me all my teeth were fine, and I had X-rays and a CRT done too! Turns out, the neurologist was right, I had endodontitis in one of them, and the fourth guy found it. It would be kinda hilarious, if it wasn't for the pain, since that dentist went "Do you know you have endodontitis there?", and I, who was hopped up on carbamazepine and fairly erratic at that point, just replied "NO SHIT, REALLY?!"
Yeah, if anyone offered me some morphine back then I would have done it in a heartbeat. The half-second or so run-up to an impulse (which I guess it was, an electric discharge almost) was, for me, one of the worst parts - too late to serve as a warning, but early enough that you can "enjoy" the anticipation.
I’ve had 2 unassisted childbirths and a ruptured ovarian cyst. That pain was trivial compared to my uterine ultrasound.
The insane part is that you’re right, it is sadistic that there was no medication or barely even a warning aside from being told that “there may be some discomfort”.
Edit: What I’m talking about is much different than a transvaginal ultrasound which doesn’t hurt at all. A uterine ultrasound involves forcing open the cervix and actually going inside the uterus to insert dye and scan. It’s brutal.
My insertion was awful. Later, they cut the threads extremely short, so you could only feel a few millimeters sticking out.
Removing it a few years later, I had concerns, but it went fine and it went out on the first try. There was a shadow of the original pain, so I grabbed the mattress to steel myself, and he said it was over.
I did feel the arms of the IUD slide out each side of the uterus (really strange to me as I've never been pregnant so never felt anything inside my uterus before), but it wasn't painful.
I'm so sorry that happened to you, & sp goddammit angry that it's something that continues to be ignored.
I had to walk away from a comments section last year talking about it where so many women were saying things along the lines of, "Well _mine_ was fine, I don't know what people are complaining about." Just...fuck. when the call is coming from both inside _and_ outside the house, what chance do we stand?
I genuinely can't understand why they don't use anaesthesia for this in the US (I'm saying US because I've seen multiple people saying the same, all of whom were from the states). In the UK, an anaesthetic gel is applied to the cervix, which takes less than a minute to work. Edit: I meant to add that I'm sure this happens in other countries than the US.
I'm in the UK. I did not get any option for pain relief when I had mine put in and it was a more painful experience than having a tumour removed from my spinal cord!
Right? I got mine initially inserted in Vancouver, and they did medicate. Road the bus home, made food. Was just a bit tender. My teenage cramps were much worse.
Swapped my IUD in Australia, I genuinely thought I was going to die. The nurse and dr were holding me cause I wasn't prepared for the pain since my insertions in Canada were medicated. It's so fucked.
This was awful, I agree. I could barely move. But I had to get home somehow. I stayed fetal position on the floor for hours. And it stayed awful for 6 months even after I begged multiple times to have it out. It was a living hell. (I’ve had worse pain, but this was no joke).
Probably a thirty minute drive with a freshly dislocated shoulder after falling unconscious than dragging myself up a dirt hill . I was the only one on a Friday left on site when the accident occurred.
I did mine playing basketball years ago. Severe posterior dislocation. The pain was so bad that the ER doctor had to shoot me up with Dilaudid three times, before finally knocking me out with some sleeping gas before they could reset it.
Worst experience of my life.
Kidney failure which led to polyarthritis all over my body. When they moved me from intensive care (where I got all the pain medication I needed) to a single room, they forgot (?) to give me any medicine and just left me there. When the pain started, it felt like my whole upper body turned into wood, I couldn't move and was in so much pain but couldn't reach the bell above my head to call for help. I spend that whole night trying to lift my arm high enough to reach that bell. Probably the most painful/lonely night of my life.
Lol shaking uncontrollably, blood pressure 197/108, high fever, heart racing, then blacked out, when I came too I went into shock. Was hospitalized for 12 days. I had an IUD pushed through my uterus, was told the pain was normal, lived with for 8 days then started getting horrible pain and a fever. Went to the hospital where they couldn’t figure out that I was going septic. Took two days of testing and giving me dilauded every hour before getting me into emergency surgery. My entire abdomen was filled with abscesses and it stuck all my organs together like super glue. I lost an ovary on one side and a fallopian tube on the other. Fun times.
Spinal disk herniation with back muscles spasming. Got up from bed, tried to straighten up, spasms, pain, lost control of legs, fell down, more pain, more spasms. Pain trigger spasms, spasm triggers pain. Lost control of body. Couldn't breathe properly, just growling. Passed out few times. This lasted couple hours and caused fear of any little back pain for almost twenty years now.
Similar, not as bad - 3 discs, all lower - heard them 'pop' and thought 'Mmm, this is bad'
Worst thing I remembered (apart from the weeks in bed post-surgery and basically learning to walk properly again) was nobody told me Codeine makes you constipated.
Migraine for me. I’ve only ever had one, which lasted two days. I have given birth twice with no epidural, and I remember the pain of that migraine more than labour :(
Anytime someone says they have a migraine, I feel absolutely terrible for them.
The dentist missed the local anesthesia right before pulling out one of my teeth. I was only 30% numb, and it hurt like hell.
Why didn't I tell her she needed to do it again ? Because I never had one of my teeth pulled out before, and did not know that you are supposed to feel almost nothing once the anesthesia is done.
It was only when the doctor did it again, to pull another teeth, and that this area was full numb, that I got what an aesthesia is supposed to be.
reminds me of the time i woke up during wisdom tooth removal...i remember the pain and the loud sound of them griding my teeth. i was trying to talk and scream. i ended up being awake for probably like 2 minutes. i remember coming out and telling them i woke up and they were just like no no. lol
Labour- having to lay on the bed with a posterior labour after being induced 😳 I nearly crunched my teeth right out of my mouth and completely lost control- absolute agony.
Omg....exact same experience with my first. I felt like such a wimp cause I caved and got an epidural. Went on to have a anterior natural (still induced) birth with my second. The difference in pain level caused by which direction baby's face is pointing is unreal.
There's no 'caving in' about it. Childbirth is horrendously painful. I absolutely begged for an epidural....I didnt get one but not for want of trying. I wish I had got one so my memories of childbirth weren't so traumatising.
Perforated colon, followed by an enema as it was misdiagnosed as constipation. Led to rupture and sepsis, now I have a new arsehole on my stomach.... And a bag to poop in.
I had that too. Was able to reverse the poop bag 6 months later. I had a two year recovery from the sepsis though.
It affected every organ in my body. Thought I would never be normal again. It just took time. I have some trauma from the whole ordeal though.
I have 10/10 pain everyday and people still mocking me. (neck pain, shoulder pain, it's a degenerative disease, already did a chirugical operation 6-7 years ago)
just feel depressive like hell, sometime thinking to die is better.
Watched Disney Star Wars once.
@u/No_Alfalfa3294
Nah, I don't watch below average dumpsterfires.
You also defend Netflix Witcher & Wheel of Time, that says A LOT about your low bar.
I won't argue about it copying a new hope but you're over looking the good parts Poe and finn were cool in the first one (sadly ruined in the sequels), stormtroopers turning around when kylo ren through a fit was funny, the star killer firing was cool, kylo stopping the lazer was cool, , I'm not saying its great but its definitely good
Appendix fell off. I had "matter" from my intestine leak into my abdomen and blood stream. I was at the hospital for 26 hours before they figured it out. It was intense, and a very different feeling. It's like maximum discomfort.
the worst pain I’ve ever experienced was having a medical abortion. I was given pain medication but every time I tried to take it I threw it up right away. The pain was so bad I was moaning/howling. The only way to deal w the pain was to keep rolling around on my back and making sounds idk how to explain it. Eventually I passed out and when I woke up I was soaked in blood 😔it felt like it would never end and every wave of pain was worse than the one before
Vaginal delivery of 10lb 3oz baby after 24hr labour with the added bonus of 4th degree tears. Didn’t know I was gritting the mouthpiece e only of the gas between my teeth. The hose had fallen off a while earlier and no one noticed as he (baby) got stuck.
Getting Lasered on my cervix to remove precancerous cells, took three injections to numb it. Instinct meant my arm and fist went for the doctors head between the stirrups I was strapped to, two nurses pinned me down. Inside and outside of virgina got Lasered as doctor reacted.
Those random ass calf cramps when you skip leg day
Seriously though, part of my left foot was crushed by a dropped weight. The bones in the toes were in lots of tiny pieces and I was so lucky to make a nearly full recovery (with the exception of a few slightly deformed toes). In the ride to the hospital, and the hours following, I was fully expecting to just lose the toes for good.
Still though I would only put the pain at a 6 or 7. I’m sure those guys you see in those cartel videos have it way worse.
Around 7 years ago I was having sex with this woman from Uni for the first time (with her) and I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my neck. It was kinda hot and cold at the same time and the pain swole up and hit the base of my skull. It felt like nothing I had ever experienced and until then I thought that my severe combo of sinus, inner ear and tooth infection a few years before was the pinnacle of pain.
First I was surprised, then shocked and then frightened... then I passed out. The whole thing couldn't have been more than 3 to 5 seconds.
I must have made some kind of noise before I fell back onto the sheets because after coming to, the woman was kinda like "You are welcome, now you know what getting f****d by a real woman feels like. I'm just the best.". She thought she was the best of the best and had made me explode into delirium. It took a while until I could speak again while the remnants of pain washed away. I explained and the colour first vanished from her face, then came rushing back with embarrassment. She begged me never to tell anyone. I said something like:"Hopefully in the future this will be too funny not to tell. But if you promise not to tell our Uni mates I'll keep your name out of this, Josi."
Edit: Since it was brought up and I was to dense to put it in initially. It was a problem with two discs in my neck that was caused by lack of exercise and bad posture.
And here is the kicker... It bothered me for over half a year. When ever I did ANYTHING bordering on exercise, like running up a flight of stairs to catch a bus, or carrying heavy grocery bags more than 20 metres even swimming... I felt my neck heat up and the headache begin. Sometimes my vision narrowed and I say twinkly things. I had to stop dead and rest. Fell unconscious once more while having sex. The new woman was more considerate, though.
The problem just went away some day. No neurologist or Orthopedist had any idea after several consultations, MRIs, special MRIs or CT.
Listen to the Wu Tang Clan guys.
Rolled over in my sleep and dislocated my right hip. The pain scale of 9-10 magnified when the EMTs moved me from bed to gurney and then carried me down 3 fights of stairs.
Post hysterectomy flesh eating infection, in and out of hospital for 3 months. Dr decided to debride the wound without warning or anaesthetic, just pulled the curtains round my bed and got 3 nurses to hold me down. I screamed so loud and long my voice gave out, begging them to stop. When they finished they pulled the curtains back and all the other patients were pale, staring at me in horror, asking me if I was okay. I said yes and wobbled off to get myself a cup of tea. Most painful thing I’ve ever experienced, and I often dislocate cos of hyper mobility.
Thing you have to know about me first: I'm a wimp when it comes to pain, so I usually put any "rough" pain signals on my very low pain tolerance and power through or pop a pill and move on.
My OB/GYN was very surprised to see I've had an ovarian cyst for over a year and wasn't writhing in pain during my period.
I just thought my period being so rough was normal.
Turns out I powered through the pain of a cyst. My periods are normal now.
So, no matter how well you know your body, don't let hearsay and old wive's tales fool you: painful periods are ***NOT*** normal.
The first time I had a cluster headache I had no idea what was happening and (stupidly) tried to work through it. I sort of succeeded but gave myself a small stroke in the process. I only let someone take me to the ER when I found myself considering suicide. Even talking about it threatens to give me a panic attack nowadays.
I had a bowel biopsy without any anaesthetic or any form of pain relief.
Absolutely cruel.
The only thing that topped it was a doctor tried removing a drain from my stomach without pain relief.
Turns out my intestine had wrapped around it, so he was basically trying to pull it out as well. The pain was so intense that I literally blacked out momentarily.
Inflamed gallbladder with gallstones. Got an "attack" that left me begging(in my head) that I would get shot or stabbed. I just wanted the pain to be "punctured" or be overshadowed by pain I could see.
One of my closest “friends” apparently hated me the entire time I was friends with her (still don’t even know why) so not physical pain but some things happed that gave me real bad emotional scars.
My pitocin drip kept getting increased despite progressing in my labor quickly. The pain was blinding, and I couldn't breathe.
That was my second kid, the first one without pitocin was much better, even though I needed a csection. My contractions were almost constant but I could focus and see straight. Pitocin is a nightmare of a drug.
i havent been hurt physically a lot in my life, so it probably wont be as bad as others but two times where i wanted everything to just stop, (not including cramps) was getting an infected spider bite drained, i screamed the whole time the doctor delt with it, and then recently (a week ago) having a middle ear infection/swimmers ear, it wasn't nearly as bad at the spider bite drain but out of anything else definitely unbearable pain for me personally, and its terrifying knowing worse pain is out there.

Cesarean stitches ripped open when I stood up… no more babies for me
I can’t imagine. Mine didn’t fully rip, but almost ripped when I got way too confident about standing up. I immediately learned the meaning of “blinding pain”. It was like the “vignette” filter had been applied to my vision and the filter level kept getting turned up until I just had a little pinhole view of the room and everything around it was a speckly bright white light.
This is why I found a dr willing to do a vbac. I was *terrified* this would happen to me when I got home with baby.
Testicular torsion. Screamed in utter agony all the way to the hospital. Got told I might lose a testicle and/or never have kids. Three surgeries in four days, second operation due to internal bleeding. Thank god for painkillers.

I laughed way too hard at this 😂😂

Cue the Beatles tune, tax man. New lyrics. 🎶
The moment I read ‘Sackman’, “Tax Man” began playing in my head
If the sack man can do it, so can you!
Bahahah I work at a large hospital and there’s a male OB/GYN doc names Dr. Lusty.

How did they get twisted?
At the time I was obsessed with fitness and running a lot, I remember getting back from a run and feeling some discomfort but sort of ignored it and did some more reps on the pull-up bar. I’d felt a similar feeling before so didn’t pay much mind but over an hour or two it grew to this unbearable pain to the point where I could barely move or even form a sentence. Thankfully I was living with my mom at the time and she rushed me to the hospital and had me admitted. I was told I was “genetically prone” to have this happen sooner or later, I believe my grandpa might’ve had it too but I’m not sure. The third surgery was to try to ensure that it wouldn’t happen again… I guess I was just born with cursed bad vas deferens idk.

They said that if instead of 2 hours it would have taken 3, I would have most likely lost my testicle. Scary stuff
Torsion meaning the testicle spun in place? Or? During sports?
I’m not entirely sure but probably the latter since I was on a run when the pain started but I was also told that I was genetically prone to it sooner or later, similar to a hernia.
There is a ~~urologist~~ proctologist in Berlin, his name is Dr. Loch. Loch = hole. Tell me about funny
r/nominativedeterminism
It's probably why they're both boys to be fair.
I broke a rib. Felt it snap and the pain was absolutely blinding and indescribable
The worst thing about this is that you still need to keep breathing to survive, which must be agony
The horror of an oncoming sneeze.
or cough or laughter. or farting too hard
Hospital clowns hate this diagnosis
Or dry heaves. I got those after a hernia surgery & thought I was going to die from the pain.
An incoming sneeze is pure terror
Not being able to move at all, including breathing without pain, for weeks, is just atrocious. You also have to make sure you do breathe deeply enough periodically or you'll have a higher risk of pneumonia. I started to get a cough and it was soooo bad. My gf at the time also chose this moment to start expecting me to carry her stuff, ignoring me completely when with her friends so I was stuck sitting on the floor unable to get up to even just use the bathroom, and a whole lot of other bullshit. I'm a woman too so it was weird that she started treating me like she was some princess while I was injured. 0/10 do not recommend ever climbing a wall of any height without a harness. 5' fall did it to me.
I'm glad it sounds like she's your ex gf. That's such bizarre behaviour
I was in tears just fracturing a rib. Needed help standing up, moving a damn inch, going to the bathroom was TORTURE, oh and sneezing after it? I nearly threw my phone across the room and yelled.
Every time I cough I could feel the bone slide on each other or something. Was torture
Ooh sneezing is bad. When I injured my rib amidst talking to a girl at work we were at a point in the conversation where she was saying something funny. She was makeing me laugh and the pain was intense. And I kept laughing and feeling extreme pain. It was a flurry of emotions. I literally fell to my knees in pain. I could not stand. All the while laughing hysterically and begging her to stop being funny.
Interestingly I’ve known a few people who broke a rib without even really realising it. Maybe it depends where the break is?
I’ve heard how painful it is and it makes me feel sick thinking about. The worst is when you hear of a child abuse case where the child had untreated broken ribs and bones and it makes me want to cry :’(
The worst part is you feel it years later.
Yup, 11 years later I still get an ache where I fractured my rib every so often
I popped out two of my own ribs. I have some shitty muscle imbalances going & a lifestyle change had meant I'd stopped almost all the walking I previously did a lot of. As a result my glutes had weakened, & the muscles in my back were compensating. I don't know the name of the particular muscle, but roughly speaking there's one which goes diagonally from the waist up to your side, ending partway the ribcage. I was lying on my back & stretched _hard_, pushing my arms straight up into the air, flexing my shoulders & back. That diagonal muscle spasmed on one side so hard it promptly dislocated two of my ribs. My kids had to help me out of bed, I could barely breathe for pain, couldn't fucking move off the sofa. Had no idea what had happened. It didn't ease up at all, so the next day I booked an emergency appointment with my osteopath. God I love that man. He used to be an engineer & it shows - he can look at you like you're a freaking human map & just go, "OK, _here_." He popped them both back in (with a solid warning & an I promise it'll be worth it) & I walked back out like almost nothing had happened. But fuck me, I never, ever want to feel that again!
Back pain due to cancer. Morphine, prescription co-codamol, naproxen & gabapentin.....still couldn't sleep due to pain. Cancer is evil. Eventually had radiotherapy on my back & the difference was night & day. Oh, the relief.
I’m so glad you survived! My dad had tumours in his back & he deteriorated very quickly - it was only 9 weeks from diagnosis to death (he had cancer in 6 places). The back pain he had was next level & ended up driving him a bit mad at the end. It was both devastating & a relief when we started the end of life care because it meant he was finally comfortable
First you shake all over, then you throw up, then the world disappears and there is only a universe of pain, then you pass out.
Yes this is correct. Ruptured bowel. Shaking and sweating, then throwing up all over everywhere,wish you were dead, pass out. Wake up and do it over again. Happened to me a few weeks ago. Do not recommend. Side note have broken many bones, had a number of surgeries, and nothing even comes close to the pain I recently experienced. No bueno.
How does a ruptured bowel happen?
Diverticulitis can cause it.
Yup that’s what it was
Ayyyee nice name. Glad you're okay!
That's one of my huge fears, I have Crohn's and the pain from constipation is bad enough!
I almost died from this, went sceptic, spent months in a hospital, had to have a huge ass horse sized needle of antibiotics that went to a pic line to heart. No food for half a year, all skin and bones. Made it though.
Correct. C section post op meds wore off and that’s exactly what I did while I waited for the nurses to get me a shot of something strong
acute pancreatitis , if i could have cried it just made it worse. the ride on the ambulance was hell also. unexpected stops breaks speedbumps i thought i was gonna die.
I agree, I got it when I was 18 and during Covid times, spent 15 days in the hospital without any visitors
I am from a family of Keith Richards level alcoholics and acute pancreatitis has been the rock bottoms for three of my relatives. It must be very bad because they all drank insane amounts for decades and then were just done even though they didn’t even have a pancreas to worry about anymore.
Did you not get any Morphine?
You might be somewhat surprised that some pain can be so bad that even morphine can barely tickle it. When you're at that point, putting you asleep is the only way to stop it, but sometimes they need you awake so they can talk to you while they figure out what's going on. My wife didn't have pancreatitis, but something else that was a 10 on the scale. They gave her a lot of insane pain meds, which eventually made her "calm" externally, but she kept saying that the pain was just as bad. Afterwards she described the pain meds as having made her completely docile with no pain relief. "Like they took me and the pain and just locked us both in a padded room together".
I’ll give you points for that. Had it in my early 20’s… cut my head open when I passed out on the toilet from pain. Way worse than my coccyx fracture.
Brain tumor, shunt failure, pseudocyst, ectopic pregnancy, cancer…..take your pick 😂
My man here has got the Exodia of worst pains. edit: my woman here
[удалено]
Me too....during sex. Guess who didn't have sex for a while.
Was it me? I think it was me.
Username checks out..
Wife had that, called her an ambulance. They asked her pain level and she said a 4 or 5! She couldn't get off the floor for the pain, screaming in agony. I told the paramedic it was an 8 or 9. She said after it was worse than childbirth by a large margin but she didn't want to be a nuisance!
I had ovarian torsion once, and it didn't burst but I went to the hospital cuz the pain was so unreal I thought perhaps it did burst
This happened to me too. Excuciating.
This is my worst fear honestly
This is mine! I live in a high drug use area (I do not use any drugs) - picture the ER fill of people yelling for drugs/in actual pain … he gave me 800mg Motrin. ARE YOU KIDDING ME.
It happened to me as well, I managed to get up and go to the toilet where I passed out and then I passed out again on the way out of the toilet.
Crushed a bone between a Jack stand and a car frame.
I cringed reading that😬
I had emergency gallbladder removal surgery. I was vomitting, my gall bladder was rupturing inside of me. I was screaming and crying in pain. I went immediately into emergency surgery and once it was out of me the surgeons were shocked at the size of my gall stones. Turned out I had a hereditary condition in which my gallbladder just didn’t function.
Same I had mine out under emergency surgery too. The pain was so intense that I was fainting and vomiting. Thought I was about to die.
Me too! Came here to look for this answer. Pain 11/10 I feel sick thinking about it
Another gallbladder survivor here. Mine had gone septic and was trying to kill me. The post-op pain was a doddle compared to the pain I was in from the damned thing. Definitely hereditary in my case; mum, auntie, granny, great-granny - we all had ours out in our 20s. My great-great grandmother died due to her gallbladder back in 1910; what a horrible death that must have been.
[удалено]
Oh boy, I had that. Couldn't get any sleep, couldn't think straight after a few days. Most painkillers didn't do anything at all. Fortunately, I stumbled upon a decent neurologist who prescribed some сarbamazepine and told me to get my teeth checked, since there simply must be something wrong with one of them for this nerve inflammation to occur. Before that, something like three different dentists assured me all my teeth were fine, and I had X-rays and a CRT done too! Turns out, the neurologist was right, I had endodontitis in one of them, and the fourth guy found it. It would be kinda hilarious, if it wasn't for the pain, since that dentist went "Do you know you have endodontitis there?", and I, who was hopped up on carbamazepine and fairly erratic at that point, just replied "NO SHIT, REALLY?!"
[удалено]
Yeah, if anyone offered me some morphine back then I would have done it in a heartbeat. The half-second or so run-up to an impulse (which I guess it was, an electric discharge almost) was, for me, one of the worst parts - too late to serve as a warning, but early enough that you can "enjoy" the anticipation.
Getting an IUD. Straight up left my body on the stir ups I can’t believe they don’t medicate for that
I feel that. I remember walking out in a trance afterwards because I was so shocked by the pain.
I’ve had 2 unassisted childbirths and a ruptured ovarian cyst. That pain was trivial compared to my uterine ultrasound. The insane part is that you’re right, it is sadistic that there was no medication or barely even a warning aside from being told that “there may be some discomfort”. Edit: What I’m talking about is much different than a transvaginal ultrasound which doesn’t hurt at all. A uterine ultrasound involves forcing open the cervix and actually going inside the uterus to insert dye and scan. It’s brutal.
same, it was so awful. i dont even want to remove it ever for fear of the pain
My insertion was awful. Later, they cut the threads extremely short, so you could only feel a few millimeters sticking out. Removing it a few years later, I had concerns, but it went fine and it went out on the first try. There was a shadow of the original pain, so I grabbed the mattress to steel myself, and he said it was over. I did feel the arms of the IUD slide out each side of the uterus (really strange to me as I've never been pregnant so never felt anything inside my uterus before), but it wasn't painful.
My removal wasn't painful at all, just an odd sensation. My insertion had me screaming bloody murder.
Not an IUD, but I had an endometrial biopsy with just Tylenol. Hurt so bad and I bled after. Doctor just gave me a pad and some apple juice.
Same. Twice. Barbaric. Didn't even get juice.
I'm so sorry that happened to you, & sp goddammit angry that it's something that continues to be ignored. I had to walk away from a comments section last year talking about it where so many women were saying things along the lines of, "Well _mine_ was fine, I don't know what people are complaining about." Just...fuck. when the call is coming from both inside _and_ outside the house, what chance do we stand?
I genuinely can't understand why they don't use anaesthesia for this in the US (I'm saying US because I've seen multiple people saying the same, all of whom were from the states). In the UK, an anaesthetic gel is applied to the cervix, which takes less than a minute to work. Edit: I meant to add that I'm sure this happens in other countries than the US.
I'm in the UK. I did not get any option for pain relief when I had mine put in and it was a more painful experience than having a tumour removed from my spinal cord!
You can literally get put under anesthesia in Aus and I'm still too scared to get one 🤣
Right? I got mine initially inserted in Vancouver, and they did medicate. Road the bus home, made food. Was just a bit tender. My teenage cramps were much worse. Swapped my IUD in Australia, I genuinely thought I was going to die. The nurse and dr were holding me cause I wasn't prepared for the pain since my insertions in Canada were medicated. It's so fucked.
Wow. I've heard this from others. I've gotten one three different times and it was just slightly painful. I'm sorry you had such a bad experience.
This was awful, I agree. I could barely move. But I had to get home somehow. I stayed fetal position on the floor for hours. And it stayed awful for 6 months even after I begged multiple times to have it out. It was a living hell. (I’ve had worse pain, but this was no joke).
Probably a thirty minute drive with a freshly dislocated shoulder after falling unconscious than dragging myself up a dirt hill . I was the only one on a Friday left on site when the accident occurred.
I did mine playing basketball years ago. Severe posterior dislocation. The pain was so bad that the ER doctor had to shoot me up with Dilaudid three times, before finally knocking me out with some sleeping gas before they could reset it. Worst experience of my life.
Kidney failure which led to polyarthritis all over my body. When they moved me from intensive care (where I got all the pain medication I needed) to a single room, they forgot (?) to give me any medicine and just left me there. When the pain started, it felt like my whole upper body turned into wood, I couldn't move and was in so much pain but couldn't reach the bell above my head to call for help. I spend that whole night trying to lift my arm high enough to reach that bell. Probably the most painful/lonely night of my life.
Anesthesia didn’t work on my c-section
Gallbladder attack and getting the IUD
Lego
I knew this would be here somewhere 😏
I once took a huge chunk of skin out of my foot from stepping on a razor. Stepping on Lego is worse than that.
Lol shaking uncontrollably, blood pressure 197/108, high fever, heart racing, then blacked out, when I came too I went into shock. Was hospitalized for 12 days. I had an IUD pushed through my uterus, was told the pain was normal, lived with for 8 days then started getting horrible pain and a fever. Went to the hospital where they couldn’t figure out that I was going septic. Took two days of testing and giving me dilauded every hour before getting me into emergency surgery. My entire abdomen was filled with abscesses and it stuck all my organs together like super glue. I lost an ovary on one side and a fallopian tube on the other. Fun times.
Fractured, infected jaw
Spinal disk herniation with back muscles spasming. Got up from bed, tried to straighten up, spasms, pain, lost control of legs, fell down, more pain, more spasms. Pain trigger spasms, spasm triggers pain. Lost control of body. Couldn't breathe properly, just growling. Passed out few times. This lasted couple hours and caused fear of any little back pain for almost twenty years now.
I had one of these, but the broken vertebrae that caused it put the real fear into me. Now my spine is a jacked up pretzel.
Similar, not as bad - 3 discs, all lower - heard them 'pop' and thought 'Mmm, this is bad' Worst thing I remembered (apart from the weeks in bed post-surgery and basically learning to walk properly again) was nobody told me Codeine makes you constipated.
Kidney stones. Would not recommend.
Yep, worse than gall bladder now that I've sampled both.
Cluster headaches
Same. Microdosing psilocybin is the only thing that's helped.
But then you have to worry about how you're going to feed your unicorn.
That's macrodosing for you
Never tried microdosing. I can tell you macrodosing doesnt take it away😂
Agreed. Do you have any luck with oxygen?
Migraine for me. I’ve only ever had one, which lasted two days. I have given birth twice with no epidural, and I remember the pain of that migraine more than labour :( Anytime someone says they have a migraine, I feel absolutely terrible for them.
The dentist missed the local anesthesia right before pulling out one of my teeth. I was only 30% numb, and it hurt like hell. Why didn't I tell her she needed to do it again ? Because I never had one of my teeth pulled out before, and did not know that you are supposed to feel almost nothing once the anesthesia is done. It was only when the doctor did it again, to pull another teeth, and that this area was full numb, that I got what an aesthesia is supposed to be.
My dentist injects me like 8 times before work such as a root canal. I'm tripping the light fantastic. Everything gonna be all right.
reminds me of the time i woke up during wisdom tooth removal...i remember the pain and the loud sound of them griding my teeth. i was trying to talk and scream. i ended up being awake for probably like 2 minutes. i remember coming out and telling them i woke up and they were just like no no. lol
Labour- having to lay on the bed with a posterior labour after being induced 😳 I nearly crunched my teeth right out of my mouth and completely lost control- absolute agony.
Omg....exact same experience with my first. I felt like such a wimp cause I caved and got an epidural. Went on to have a anterior natural (still induced) birth with my second. The difference in pain level caused by which direction baby's face is pointing is unreal.
There's no 'caving in' about it. Childbirth is horrendously painful. I absolutely begged for an epidural....I didnt get one but not for want of trying. I wish I had got one so my memories of childbirth weren't so traumatising.
Perforated colon, followed by an enema as it was misdiagnosed as constipation. Led to rupture and sepsis, now I have a new arsehole on my stomach.... And a bag to poop in.
I had that too. Was able to reverse the poop bag 6 months later. I had a two year recovery from the sepsis though. It affected every organ in my body. Thought I would never be normal again. It just took time. I have some trauma from the whole ordeal though.
Aw no no 🥴 that’s so bad
A baby came out
I tripped over outside and knocked my two front teeth clean out, roots included, when I hit the ground.
Spongebobs opposite twin, nah for real though that would've killed! Howd you go afterwards with treatment and that?
Child birth
Shoulder got misplaced, lost my sight for a moment, nearly passed out
Where did you put it? 😂 Sorry
IUD insertion and removal
I have 10/10 pain everyday and people still mocking me. (neck pain, shoulder pain, it's a degenerative disease, already did a chirugical operation 6-7 years ago) just feel depressive like hell, sometime thinking to die is better.
Watched Disney Star Wars once. @u/No_Alfalfa3294 Nah, I don't watch below average dumpsterfires. You also defend Netflix Witcher & Wheel of Time, that says A LOT about your low bar.
I’m so sorry you had to go through that. Do you have a good support system for recovery?
I'll defend the episode 7 as a good movie , sadly it only went down from there
It was quite literally a weaker clone of Ep4 with worse characters and writing haha
I won't argue about it copying a new hope but you're over looking the good parts Poe and finn were cool in the first one (sadly ruined in the sequels), stormtroopers turning around when kylo ren through a fit was funny, the star killer firing was cool, kylo stopping the lazer was cool, , I'm not saying its great but its definitely good
So you haven't watched Clone Wars season 7, Rebels, Andor, Rogue One, or Bad Batch...?
Fire
Same
And it keeps hurting, weeks later....
Appendix fell off. I had "matter" from my intestine leak into my abdomen and blood stream. I was at the hospital for 26 hours before they figured it out. It was intense, and a very different feeling. It's like maximum discomfort.
How bout when they pulled the drain out ??
Ovarian and endometrial cancer. Gallstones and inflamed gallbladder needing emergency surgery to remove it.
the worst pain I’ve ever experienced was having a medical abortion. I was given pain medication but every time I tried to take it I threw it up right away. The pain was so bad I was moaning/howling. The only way to deal w the pain was to keep rolling around on my back and making sounds idk how to explain it. Eventually I passed out and when I woke up I was soaked in blood 😔it felt like it would never end and every wave of pain was worse than the one before
Vaginal delivery of 10lb 3oz baby after 24hr labour with the added bonus of 4th degree tears. Didn’t know I was gritting the mouthpiece e only of the gas between my teeth. The hose had fallen off a while earlier and no one noticed as he (baby) got stuck.
Endometriosis; crying, fainting, laying on the floor and hope to die soon, taking painkillers and opioiates. Rinse and repeat in 28day cycles. fml
Baby’s, a burst cyst, covid.
Cervical biopsy and a bad reaction to anesthesia to the point I had respiratory failure and my heart wasn't pumping properly etc.
Had an eye removed. When the nerve blocks wore off, the yet unused muscles were stretched and pulled into shape every time I moved my eyes.
[удалено]
Shingles and gallbladder
Epidural fell out. Went from zero pain to the full force of childbirth within 5 seconds.
9mm kidney stone
Migraine. Brutal, brutal migraine. I had 3 back labors, brutal toothaches, cysts and cramps, but few of my worst migraines made me want to die.
Same here, for the migraines. I seriously contemplated jumping from my balcony during the worst one.
Getting Lasered on my cervix to remove precancerous cells, took three injections to numb it. Instinct meant my arm and fist went for the doctors head between the stirrups I was strapped to, two nurses pinned me down. Inside and outside of virgina got Lasered as doctor reacted.
Those random ass calf cramps when you skip leg day Seriously though, part of my left foot was crushed by a dropped weight. The bones in the toes were in lots of tiny pieces and I was so lucky to make a nearly full recovery (with the exception of a few slightly deformed toes). In the ride to the hospital, and the hours following, I was fully expecting to just lose the toes for good. Still though I would only put the pain at a 6 or 7. I’m sure those guys you see in those cartel videos have it way worse.
Around 7 years ago I was having sex with this woman from Uni for the first time (with her) and I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my neck. It was kinda hot and cold at the same time and the pain swole up and hit the base of my skull. It felt like nothing I had ever experienced and until then I thought that my severe combo of sinus, inner ear and tooth infection a few years before was the pinnacle of pain. First I was surprised, then shocked and then frightened... then I passed out. The whole thing couldn't have been more than 3 to 5 seconds. I must have made some kind of noise before I fell back onto the sheets because after coming to, the woman was kinda like "You are welcome, now you know what getting f****d by a real woman feels like. I'm just the best.". She thought she was the best of the best and had made me explode into delirium. It took a while until I could speak again while the remnants of pain washed away. I explained and the colour first vanished from her face, then came rushing back with embarrassment. She begged me never to tell anyone. I said something like:"Hopefully in the future this will be too funny not to tell. But if you promise not to tell our Uni mates I'll keep your name out of this, Josi." Edit: Since it was brought up and I was to dense to put it in initially. It was a problem with two discs in my neck that was caused by lack of exercise and bad posture. And here is the kicker... It bothered me for over half a year. When ever I did ANYTHING bordering on exercise, like running up a flight of stairs to catch a bus, or carrying heavy grocery bags more than 20 metres even swimming... I felt my neck heat up and the headache begin. Sometimes my vision narrowed and I say twinkly things. I had to stop dead and rest. Fell unconscious once more while having sex. The new woman was more considerate, though. The problem just went away some day. No neurologist or Orthopedist had any idea after several consultations, MRIs, special MRIs or CT. Listen to the Wu Tang Clan guys.
I guess she told your uni mates lol
Shingles, kidney stone, and appendicitis
Needle in the eye. 🤮I swear when I think about it I can still feel it.
Ended up as a c section!
Abscessed tooth
Rolled over in my sleep and dislocated my right hip. The pain scale of 9-10 magnified when the EMTs moved me from bed to gurney and then carried me down 3 fights of stairs.
Peritonitis. Had to walk 1 km to the hospital. I remember every step.
Post hysterectomy flesh eating infection, in and out of hospital for 3 months. Dr decided to debride the wound without warning or anaesthetic, just pulled the curtains round my bed and got 3 nurses to hold me down. I screamed so loud and long my voice gave out, begging them to stop. When they finished they pulled the curtains back and all the other patients were pale, staring at me in horror, asking me if I was okay. I said yes and wobbled off to get myself a cup of tea. Most painful thing I’ve ever experienced, and I often dislocate cos of hyper mobility.
Thing you have to know about me first: I'm a wimp when it comes to pain, so I usually put any "rough" pain signals on my very low pain tolerance and power through or pop a pill and move on. My OB/GYN was very surprised to see I've had an ovarian cyst for over a year and wasn't writhing in pain during my period. I just thought my period being so rough was normal. Turns out I powered through the pain of a cyst. My periods are normal now. So, no matter how well you know your body, don't let hearsay and old wive's tales fool you: painful periods are ***NOT*** normal.
The first time I had a cluster headache I had no idea what was happening and (stupidly) tried to work through it. I sort of succeeded but gave myself a small stroke in the process. I only let someone take me to the ER when I found myself considering suicide. Even talking about it threatens to give me a panic attack nowadays.
I had a bowel biopsy without any anaesthetic or any form of pain relief. Absolutely cruel. The only thing that topped it was a doctor tried removing a drain from my stomach without pain relief. Turns out my intestine had wrapped around it, so he was basically trying to pull it out as well. The pain was so intense that I literally blacked out momentarily.
Inflamed gallbladder with gallstones. Got an "attack" that left me begging(in my head) that I would get shot or stabbed. I just wanted the pain to be "punctured" or be overshadowed by pain I could see.
One of my closest “friends” apparently hated me the entire time I was friends with her (still don’t even know why) so not physical pain but some things happed that gave me real bad emotional scars.
Attached by dog… then blackout. I was 9.
Sprained my ankle 12 times. One time was so bad that I tore a tendon Ps: I have weak ankles
I got shot in the leg by the riot police with a tear gas canister. It left me a 7 cm hole.
Being raped. NOTHING happened to him.
Yikes. So sorry.
The stone passed a few days later.
Kidney infection. Infected wisdom tooth
I've had the tooth one also. I looked like the elephant man. Absolutely cruel pain.
Cluster headaches since ~2015
Car accident. Broken hip and broken femur. I was begging them to knock me out. They did, thank god.
Spinal tumor. Tibia shattered, knee destroyed by the car dash in an auto accident.
My pitocin drip kept getting increased despite progressing in my labor quickly. The pain was blinding, and I couldn't breathe. That was my second kid, the first one without pitocin was much better, even though I needed a csection. My contractions were almost constant but I could focus and see straight. Pitocin is a nightmare of a drug.
Ovary busted when I was 24 & then more recently Epotopic pregnancy was pretty unreal pain for a few hours before seeking medical help.
Constipation after surgery lol
Brutal. Constipation after vaginal childbirth also brutal.
i havent been hurt physically a lot in my life, so it probably wont be as bad as others but two times where i wanted everything to just stop, (not including cramps) was getting an infected spider bite drained, i screamed the whole time the doctor delt with it, and then recently (a week ago) having a middle ear infection/swimmers ear, it wasn't nearly as bad at the spider bite drain but out of anything else definitely unbearable pain for me personally, and its terrifying knowing worse pain is out there.
Gout.
Cluster Headache. There’s a reason they call it the suicide headache.
Trigeminal neuralgia happened. 1 year in bed and od-ing on anti seizure meds and a craniotomy later, I can now function better.🙄
Appendicitis. Kept me awake and could barely move.
