Originally Posted By ajnhollysmommy I had an epidural for childbirth but it did not touch my back labor oh boy was that painful. But I knew that would end so I would not call that my most painful time I have 2 that tie, one is after my food surgery and the throbbing that went on for days and when I had a cyst explode
Originally Posted By MissCandice Having my skin fall off my hands and feet after radiation was very painful.

I was pretty morphined up but it didn't help (I shudder to think how it would have felt not to have the morphine), also at the same time I had painful mouth sores so I couldn't eat or drink without agony in my throat. Not good times.

Originally Posted By mele Yes, Candice definitely wins. peeaanuut, I bet detox for 7 1/2 days is worse than childbirth. (At least for most.)

Having my little finger pulled straight after I dislocated it and broke it in 2 places (it looked like the zorro sign, it concertina'd up when I fell on the edge of a pavement)

For me, hm, it's a tie between childbirth - I had a spinal given by a baaad resident (that really hurt) and the anesthesia wore off before the doctor actually stiched me up :-( and foot/leg neuropathy. Although I have mental excersizes to help with that.
