    Random post but im currently laid here now after ankle surgery on Thursday where i had a support and 2 brackets fitted in my foot and im in absolute agony. The sweat is dripping off me because im in so much pain.

    I thought id start this thread to ask, what injuries or surgery is the worst pain youve ever experienced? It may make me feel better :emoticon-0138-think.

    Really sorry to hear that mate. I had it when I was 18, it can be treated amd defeated. Really hope your daughter has one that can be beaten.

    @LAMackem I cannot imagine the pain you are feeling right now That is horrific and I hope your daughter is going to be ok

    Not sure if I should post my answer in the light of that, but I'll give it a go

    Back in 2017 I got an infection in my elbow joint. Absolute ****ing agony (was close to be admitted to hospital, but in the end a cocktail of drugs [32 pills a day] kept it at bay. In addition to the physical pain, I had hallucinogenic dreams that come with a chest/throat infection. Was crazed. 2 weeks off work, for someone who never takes time off - there was a point where the infection was so bad that my Wife said she could feel the heat from my elbow a few feet away

    If we are going for mental pain, I will never forget the morning when I was 12 and my Dad told me my cousin had taken her own life

    Sorry, that's probably too deep

    Its not at all mate. This board is a place i often come and share many life experiences because venting to strangers sometimes makes me feel alot better about the situation.

    Worst day of my life. I'm 47 and I'll freely admit I've never gotten over it. I still miss her so much.

    Couldn't agree more mate.....I do the same.
    Sometimes just getting things off your chest does you the world of good.

    Totally true mate. Im too stubborn and proud to tell people around me how i feel or how im feeling so hence the reason im having therapy.
    Talking to strangers is so much easier, and after many years of being in denial im not ashamed to admit it.

    I think that everybody has some sort of pain stories be it physical or mental and to have a place where they can be open and honest with a little anonimity is invaluable. Next week is always a tough one for me as the 17th is the day I lost a good friend then a few years later my Uncle. Whilst away in Cambridge working I was having a toast to my friend and uncle the following year to get a phone call that my other uncle had a massive heart attack and had died. So Thursday I toast my friend and my dad's 2 brothers on the same day. Often makes me a bit sad but I try to remember the stories and the good times so often manage a smile as well. Sorry for rambling but it is always on my mind this time of year.

    Sorry to hear that mate. Hopefully it's been caught early enough that she'll get through it.
