root canals

I just had one of these done. 2 modest needles followed by 2 smaller needles, and then 30 min later and I was done. Didnt hurt any more than a filling.

Yeah, its weird...I'd heard horror stories about root canals for years, and when I finally needed one a couple of years back I was dreading it. And even despite the fact that my nerve canals were a mess, and my regular dentist had to give up and send me to an endodontist, it was one of the least traumatic dental experiences I've had...I actually dozed off for a while during the procedure.

a stomach infection has probably been the worst for me. I had to keep drinking water to keep myself from getting dangerously dehydrated, but everytime I drank water it sent sharp pains all throughout my stomach. This went on for 2 or 3 days. I think I got the bacteria infection from when I was volunteering to plant some trees for some foundation, [censored] volunteering.

For me, it was a peritonsullar abcess. Picture a golfball sized lump on your right tonsil, that ypu can clearly see in the mirro because it pushes your uvula over to the left side. I couldn't move my neck or head, couldn't eat, could barely drink anything because swallowing was insanely painful.

To swallow I had to prep myself, and then kick as hard as a could with my right foot to help me swallo. Don't ask me how it worked but it did.

When I went to the hospital finally, they couldn't numb my mouth to drain it, so the doctor stuck a syringe down my throat to drain the pus out of the abcess, while two nurse dudes held me down because the gag reflex was making the doctor miss the abcess and stick the back of my throat.

And I couldn't smoke for the whole time I had it. Sucked major balls.

I didnt use enough lotion and got sunburned a little bit and it hurt in the shower.

it didn't happen to me, but my brother used to get such bad random nosebleeds that they had to cauterize the inside of his nose twice. one of the times they burned too far, and the hole in his nose makes a whistling noise when he breathes through it

Mine is also sinus-related. When I was like 14 I had my first sinus inflammation, and doctor said that I needed the sinus cavity drained of fluids. They stuck a thick needle through the tissue separating that cavity from nostrils, and that was more painful than anything else I experienced since. I refuse to do this anymore, and just go through sinus-induced migraines twice a year, feeling somewhat suicidal when it happens.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that something's changed in the last 20 years as far as this stuff goes. Maybe I should go get another one to see if it feels better!

LOL...yeah, they gave me some pretty serious [censored]...they shoot it right into the nerve and warn you that "your heart might race for a few seconds"...thought I was going to have a coronary for a minute, but after that I didn't feel a damn thing.

I got electrocuted yesterday. 220 volts in my shower in Thailand. Took the electricity for 5-10 seconds before I was able to free myself.
