What' the worst physical pain you've ever experienced?
Sir Rodney:
“THE” operation after I (and my bride) decided to stop having children.
Recovery, not so fun… :o
Sir William:
Wow James, you did have a guardian angel that night. Little old ladies rarely go out for a drive at 2am. :)
Worst pain I've ever felt was a sudden onset migraine that hit me while I was driving. My first clue? Oncoming headlights seemed like lightknives skewering me in the eye- and there wasn't a damn thing I could do about it. If I closed my eyes I would've had an accident; thank God my wife was with me. I could barely pull over and get out to get in the other side; think I reclined the seat all the way and closed my eyes. Felt like I was going to throw up it hurt so bad.
Doc said it was stress-related (had gotten the news that my eldest daughter's biological father contacted her on FB; he hadn't seen her since she was a year old, what the hell did he want with her 17 years later?); haven't had one since and THANK GOD EVERY DAY for that.
Sir Edward:
Holy crap, Sir James! I know you've talked about the accident in passing, but wow. You're really lucky to be alive and one piece after that.
Sir William, yeah those migraines can be very sudden. Glad you don't get them regularly like that. I get migraines, but they're pretty few and far between these days, since I've identified my food triggers.
Sir William:
A food can trigger a migraine? Now that's bad news, I love to eat. I'm glad to hear you're not getting them regularly Sir Edward- just the one was more than enough for me. I can't recall having felt that helpless...ever.
Sir Edward:
Yep, there can be all sorts of triggers for people, and everyone is a little different. Stress, caffeine withdrawal, disrupting sleep or eating schedules, low blood sugar, loud noises, bright lights, certain foods, weather changes, and so on.
