I could tell you what it's like to have a broken back, but words alone cannot describe it.

kidney stones are known as the worst...had them...

back pain so bad ya wanna cry..... that continues....

getting hit in the face by a boomer rang comes to mind.

but i'll never forget that one day while i had on my cast
on for my broken ankle....

my larger dingo dog came running across the room
to greet me in a happiness mode....

she turned sideways and body slammed my leg hitting the cast
in particular... which woke it up bigtime and it swelled up
with no where for the swelling to go.... still in a cast...
pain that had me writhing and yelling...
i took allot of strong meds that day/ i can tell you that.

Compound fracture right arm. Broke it in a bike crash(pedal)when I was 16. I broke that arm 4 other times in football but that was the worst. i also broke every bone in my foot and ankle in a car crash when I was 20 and that was a close 2nd.

Posterior shoulder dislocation after going over on a Lazer outside Pomponneset inlet.

Four hours out of place till the harbor master and ambulance got me to Falmouth Hospital.

This one time in college, I was in pain so bad that I passed out on the bathroom floor without the help of alcohol.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.

back pain was no fun, but the worst for mme was bursitis with impingement and a floating bone chip in my left shoulder. the pain went from my neck down to my thumb and it felt like my arm was on fire. SS Hospital gave me flexeril, percocet and dilaudid but that wouldn't even take the edge off. My primary dr got me in to see a specialist (after about 2 weeks) and he refused to give me a shot saying that my mri was unavailable, I wanted to kick him in the nutz, I got my mri, xrays, and report and called the Baptist Hosp, where I got a cortizne shot and set up w/ therapy. This went on for about a month

Had just finished playing basketball game in college - intense game for spot in playoffs. We won. In locker room, stepped into shower and SNAP ...ruptured achilles tendon and out like a light for a second, then vomiting from the pain. Surgery, casts for 4 months and a full year for recovery...nasty.
