Rate your pain on a scale from 1 to 10

So this morning I woke up, wasn't feeling so hot. Felt a bit nauseous and my bladder couldn't decide whether it was empty or not. Two hours later, it felt like I might have pulled a muscle in my back.

Forty minutes after that, stabbing persistent pain in my kidney and I am writhing on the floor trying to decide whether to call family or just dial 911.

Kidney stones! They kind of suck! I went from feeling moderately well to rating my pain at an 8 within an hour, and it was a completely consistent pain. No lulls, no spikes. Just hurt hurt hurt. Don't think I've ever felt that bad in my life. And it wasn't even necessarily life threatening!

Thank god for modern medicine and our wonderful array of pain medications.

So, SE++ tell me about your pain.

Where does it hurt

    My Nurse said she's had women who swear childbirth was no big deal compared to their kidney stones. My stone is apparently only 4mm. A friend of my family just had one that was 10mm a month or so ago. I cannot even imagine

    Also, I have no real pain to speak of, just constant joint aches throughout my arms, wrists, and hands, because I have hella joint laxity, and I'm finally doing something about it.

    I'm pretty sure it alters my mental state at work, where it's the worst, such that it contributes noticeably to me now hating my job.

    Nope! If I manage to catch the stone in the pee filters they gave me, the docs will analyze it and should be able to tell me why it formed. However I'd put big money on Diet & Exercise, as I have become a sad sack who only eats fast food and never leaves the house for the past 4 months.

    Weird that this thread just came up.

    Last night I had the sunburn itch from hell

    I honestly thought I was loosing my mind; I had a pretty bad sunburn all the way down my neck to my butt on the 4th, and it was starting to heal. Well at around 8 last night it starts to itch. Normal itch. Then that gets worse. Then that gets worse. 10 minutes in and I am going through waves of unbearably sharp itch-based pain ... like a feral cat is crawling up my back. Like I'm rolling over rolls of barbed wire. Everyone's looking at me like I'm crazy; I'd be fine for like half-a-minute then another wave would come over me and I'd be writhing on the floor again. Went on for like 3 hours, before 4 Ibuprofen and a heaping pile of Cortizone spray and aloe-lotion finally started to work it's magic, then it was another highly-uncomfortable hour before I finally just collapsed into sleep on the couch.

    It wasn't until I googled it this morning that I realized this is a freak thing but a real thing. I however never wish to experience this ever, and will double up on my sunblock usage.

    Fuck sunburns, man.
