I've noticed the same thing, comments are not visible. As explained below, I'm just gonna give the federation some time to do its work and then the comments will start appearing.
I think for me, the most painful experience is a tie -- one instance was Appendicitis (which was horrible) and the other instance was having one of our children without an epidural.
Aftermath of a seizure and car accident. First caused the second within seconds. The seizure pulled every muscle I had and some I didn't even know I had. The wreck caused a nasty concussion, messed up a vertebra in my back, and the resulting brain damage is still affecting me 6 years later.
For me pain is multidimensional, there’s different kinds of “worst.” The short drop onto a hospital bed after surgery was by far the strongest, sharpest, brightest pain I ever felt, but it only lasted a millisecond. Kidney stones can be sharp and radiating, but the pain tends to be localized with ebbs and flows. Pancreatitis was not as “sharp” as a kidney stone, but it was bigger, harder to tolerate, more attention consuming, and came with aweful nausea.
Everyone's in here with this horrific shit while my worst injuries never really hurt that bad. Separated shoulder, head trauma resulting in a dozen stitches, chunks of flesh missing with rocks replacing it. Not that bad.
The absolute fucking worst was getting kicked in the knee during a pickup street hockey game while wearing sweatpants. Not the kick itself, but when I got home and went to shower. Turns out the kick had given me the sweatpants equivalent of road rash. Okay, fine. Just a few fibers sticking out that I need to clean up and...
...and I can only imagine that this is what third degree burns feel like. I have no damn idea what made it so bad, but the process of removing a small patch of fibers embedded in my skin made me question whether or not it would have been quicker, simpler, and less painless to just chainsaw the fucking leg off. Fire. Burning. Burning. Down the side of my leg. I had road rash before and since and absolutely nothing was like that.
A distant second would be the road rash that I accidentally dumped ALL OF THE ALCOHOL on while trying to wet some gauze to clean it up. That was bad. The fiber thing was worse.
