    I’ve had so many accidents with some that needed surgery and nothing beats getting my finger stuck in the car door of an Uber. I’m just glad the driver didn’t move until after I freed my finger.

    I had some sort of bad migraine episode where I couldn’t stop puking. Every time I threw up, the force of doing so would cause a wave of pain that was like someone hit me in the head with a baseball bat.

      You reminded me of the one time I was visiting my uncle as a child and I ended up puking in the car because the sun was hitting the back of my head in summer, and this was Australian summer where It can get hot and humid

      I don’t know if it was a migraine but it was painful as fuck

    Fell into traffic as a kid and got hit by a car mirror on the back of my head. Split my noggin wide open. Showers were the most painful part. My parents would put a chair in the shower for me to sit in while one of them held me up because the pain was so bad I’d pass out. The shampoo was prescribed to me and it was like lava on my head.

    Spinal Stenosis. Woke up one day feeling like my back was not only broken, but that I could feel the broken ends grinding against each other.

    Had a random sinus pain that was so debilitating had to call my dad to take me to the er. Was around 13 to 16

    phone call could barely understand me. Bridge of my nose to back of head felt like sharp daggers in waves.

    By the time made it to er was gone had 0 pain and I never experienced it again. Dr’s said it was sinus but I still don’t have a fucking clue what that was

    Pretty sure I have undiagnosed IBS. Occasionally when my turds are overly firm, usually after a pizza or pasta night, I get a sharp shooting pain right up the butthole. It’s momentary, but it’s the only thing I can confidently call a 10/10 pain. In those split seconds it’s blinding.

    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.

    A spinal tap. It felt like a toothache in my entire body while a demon choir sang in a high pitched whine.

    When I was 11 there was a chance that I had contracted meningitis.

      Wanted to post the exact same thing. Experienced that a few months ago. Absolutely horrible. And i think the doctor’s instructions made it worse. They told me to slump together and not round out my back. But after several failed attempts I rounded out my back and it finally went in. But that’s only the beginning. The sucking sensation was so awful. It felt like they were trying to drain my brain.

      I can still feel it.

        Yeah they had me round my back, were pretty clear about it, but this was 30+ years ago so maybe some medical knowledge has come around, but I’ve not heard of it.

        Sorry you had to go through it, sure wish they had a better way to get spinal fluid for tests.
