Having my heart burnt on the inside to try and cure a dysrhythmia, no sedation was allowed as they needed to see it occur in a "live" environment.

Some of the drugs they gave to try and provoke it were awful, there was one that made me feel like there was a vice on my chest it also makes people have a feeling of impending doom (they warned me beforehand)

Adrenaline on the other hand is goooooood st biggrin

CS gas is a fker. As part of our basic training in the RAF, we were "introduced" to CS gas.

Led into a small brick building with a plinth in the middle on which one of the instructors had lit a couple of CS "tabs". Then told to remove our respirators and recite our name, rank, number and chosen trade before we were let out.

I swear those of us who were stupid enough to say "RAF Police" got held in there longer than the others.
Meh been there done that not even in the same ball park as the ongoing non stop
all consuming agony that is an abscess in the lower jaw.
i have a recurring one from some "less than perfect tooth removal"
and it is far worse than any other injury "including foreskin in the zip syndrome"
due to the constant hour after hour pain to the point that paracetamol etc
just do naff all only morphine derived tablets help and then only marginally.

Root canal treatment without anaesthetics. Never again.
I had a root canal with utterly ineffective anaesthetic and the dentist was a complete butcher. Immense, colours flashing before the eyes kind of pain as he hit a nerve and he wouldn't stop.

Didn't help that he was looking for a certain size drill bit when his assistant reminded him it had snapped in the last operation he did, so he had to use a larger one. Wish they'd discuss this kind of thing out of earshot of the patient.

hehe

In my case some people in uniform decided it was a good idea to spray an entire group of us. Unfortunately my acrobatic roll under a parked lorry wasn't quite quick enough to avoid getting an entire mouth full of the crap to choke on. 15 minutes later I could just about see well enough to come out.
We had to stand outside, arms and legs akimbo afterwards to let the wind take the gas out of our clothes. Then we were informed that hot water would, in fact, "reactivate" the CS, so we should take a cold shower to properly get rid of it.

If that wasn't a wind-up I don't know what was.

I have a few all stemming from the same accident.

Broke my tib, fib, femur, broke my pelvis, collar bone and put a hole in my aorta. That was painful from what ive been told. Luckily for me the brain does a great job of forgetting this.

But the worst for me was when I had my stent operation to repair my aorta. I was fully awake for it and it hurt alot.

14 or 15, I used to get ingrowing big toenails that alternated between left and right feet. To solve the problem permanently I had both removed. Not so bad for the left toe as at the point of the operation, it was black and I could actually get it to squeeze jets of black/green puss out and the nerves where shot so no feeling pre or post op. The right toe? Different story. The op is done by cutting back to the first joint, rolling back the skin and then scraping the nail bed and nail out. Because everything was healthy, I guess the nerves where a bit 'surprised' and the pain I felt was quite unbelievable. It settled down after a week, until I stubbed that toe getting into a bath. Not quite sure what came first, the realisation that I had ripped all the stitches open and that the bottom of the bath was rapidly filling with blood or the mind numbing vomit inducing paralysing throbbing pain.

Toes? What evolutionary joke left us with them?

Exactly the same experience I had (the flashing lights and pain) but it stopped for me. It stopped, and when I came back to my senses, the dentist was on the other side of the room with a Dr. Marten's footprint on his yellow tabard thing and a slightly dazed look on his face.

I was impressed that I had managed to get my foot up so high.

He gave me some anaesthetic then.

The worst I've had was a trapped nerve in my neck... a crippling pain which punished me for even the slightest movement. The car journey to A&E wasn't pleasant.
Then again I've never had an injury beyond the usual sprains and soft tissue damage. Never a broken bone and never a stitch.

On the theme of root canal treatment, I had an apicoectomy where the local anaesthetic was next to useless because of the standing infection. Smarted a bit.
Also had some k-wires pulled out of my hand without anaesthetic because the doctor reckoned "it would be okay". It wasn't.

Or indeed having one that's too big to pee out and stays inside grinding away at you while you are reduced to writhing around on the floor in front of everyone in A and E crying for help.

Genuinely the most scared I have ever been as at the time I didn't know what was happening.
Last time that happened to me I blacked out as it left my kidney.

Snapping my banjo string or having a perforated duodenal ulcer slowly exsanguinating me to the point that I had 8 units of blood and was in resus next to a very dead person and being told I would be operated on once my blood pressure was sensible, iirc I went into surgery with a BP of 50/30

Gout is extremely painful.

Luckily modern tablets get shot of it rather quickly.
