Do you have a high pain threshold? Can you take a lot of pain?

 

I used to have a really high threshold, I could get cut or gashed up like hell or fall on my back and yet it never seemed to really effect me.

 

Now, Im not bad, fairly tough, but although I dont whine about the pain, I feel it inside and think about it for quite a while. Only if its just a little nick of a knife or something.

Uh no, I guess I don't. I'm weak enough and when I cut my hand with knife or paper it's always a problem for me, it hurts so much and when I have a stomach ache or something I can't stop thinking about it.

I think I have a pretty high pain tolerance. :uhoh: Sometimes I think it's a bit too high, haha. I get random cuts 'n stuff and I don't recall ever getting them.

 

My pain tolerance has built up just cuz I've been through a lot of pain. It was already pretty high before experienced any extreme pain. I had a lumbar puncture when I was 12, and they missed 2 times (they poked my spine to get spinal fluid three times. stupid retard medical students) but I didn't shed one tear or say anything. I think the people doing the procedure were kinda surprised--they kept asking me if I was okay, and I'd just nod, haha.

 

And right after that they let me walk around and shit even though you're supposed to lay flat for 6-8 hours after a lumbar puncture. So I leaked a lot of spinal fluid and I had to be hospitalized for a week for freaking extreme headaches and nausea.

 

Oh yeah, and I had this EMG thing where this machine sent electrical pulses to check my muscle response 'n stuff and they had to stick a huge ass needle in my arm and move it around, and oddly enough that barely hurt. :uhoh: The doctor called me "really tough", haha.

 

Oh, and I've had a surgery to take my thymus gland out (which was nothing compared to that other time I was in the hospital. -_-). They had to split my sternum 'n such, so I couldn't really get around without feeling pain in my chest.

 

Uh, yeah. Enough crap...

Well I'd consider myself to have a high pain threshold but most of the pain I've experienced has either been minor or self inflicted (no I'm not a sadomasochist) like from getting tattoos or piercings.

I've never broken a bone or anything to feel that kind of pain, but if I get cut or bruised to bits I don't really moan or dwell on it because it's not as if I've lost a limb!! :)

no, im a big girly wimp. when people say "hold your hand out, i wanna see if this works on you" i dont in case it hurts. plus, i wouldnt trust them. but im good with needles!! yes, i am a big girl..............:dozey:

I'm as tough as they come,I have broken so many bones over the years i just king of got used to it i guess....quite often i might scratch/cut myself etc...then suddenly I will see blood. and only then do i realise that i have hurt myself...

Usually I'm ok but recently my friend kneed me in the groin by accident. I thought I was going to pass out from the pain.

im a super wuss...

cant take any pain... even when im not feeling THAT much pain i start whining...

I believe I can take a lot of pain... doesn't mean I don't care when i'm in pain but I'm not going to cry unless I want to

wow, you deserve a personal high five from me :stunned:

 

i could never take that much pain. maybe that explains why i'm never too good with needles. i always have to look way or try to think of something else other than "oh man, my doctor's injecting a needle into my arm of things i don't know what, but supposedly will make me immune to the flu..." however, i do have a tendancy to be clumsy and bruise myself, but that, i can take. :smug: :\

I would have said I had pain problems, until I read Alyssa's post.

 

I'm fine... :stunned:

Sissy: (n.) Now, Im not bad, fairly tough, but although I dont whine about the pain, I feel it inside and think about it for quite a while. Only if its just a little nick of a knife or something...

 

 

Synonyms: (n.) " Reilly"

hahah! :laugh1: I am:

 

Excerpt 1: Awesome

I think there must be something wrong with you....:thinking:

Last week I got a piggy back ride from a strapping young lad (It was very sexual) and he ran under a bikeshed. The side of my head got split open by the gate part, along with cuts on my hands and elbows, not to mention the fact that in getting hit in this manner it caused me to fling back onto my neck, on the concrete.

 

I got up and laughed it off! I dont recall anyone there calling me a sissy, but go ahead.

Oh, I already did, Reilly.

 

 

 

There is some kind of malfunction that makes some individuals pain sensors just NOT react. Like..they don't feel an ounce of it. And their parents always have to ckeck them over on a daily basis for any bruises or cuts they just don't notice. Like..they can snag some skin...and nothing is felt. They just see the blood run and know they got "hurt"

 

I think that is crazy.

Thats a pretty natural thing, I think. In my experience from being a kid and seeing other kids and myself get their heads crack open on concrete, and blood spews down them and they dont even realise it until someone tells them, I've seen that happen a lot.

 

I remember my little cousin was on a picnic table and fell and split her head on the bench part, and it took a second to see the blood, but it was pouring down her shoulder. She was laughing and rubbing her head, and she thought ketchup was all over her, thats pretty wacky, but normal.

once i thought i was talented by riding my scooter real fast on this thin bit of concrete and not falling off.....until i did have a crash at some fast kid speed and my face and knees kissed the concrete. i saw a chunk of missing white flesh on my knee and it was deep. i was fascinated by it because it was white not spewing out blood....again that was when i decided to go inside the house to tel mum thinking i had no blood left and then the blood finally coming like a burst water pipe.......

bloody good time that day :P

Hahaha, I have a scooter story.

 

I went down this gigantic concrete hill outside my cousins house on two scooters, and needless to say, it kinda came apart on one of the bends and I just flipped over onto my side and skidded down the concrete for about 15 feet. It completely ripped open my entire side, I looked like a dog who was hit by a car and you think you can see its organs. I tried yelling, to relieve the pain, but it was so painful, I couldnt! Oh well.

 

I went through about 15 bloodcloths before it finally stopped pumping.

^Holy crap that sounds horrible!!! :stunned:

 

Hmm....i've never really been in lots of pain compared to some.

I've split my head open twice, and had to have it stiched up, but neither of those seemed to hurt that much, I dont think I even cried. :thinking:

 

But compared to Alyssa, i've never experience extreme pain I guess. That sounds awful.

 

I really like tattoo pain though...it's quite nice, especially if it's a hot guy doing it :wink3: heheh.

One tattooist said I was really nice to tattoo because my muscles don't twitch much, as im so relaxed. So I guess im not too bad with pain.
