OK.

I'm feeling pretty rough today. Nasty cold just before Christmas and all that....

It got me wondering back to when I was the most poorly I've ever been. Especially after the "How tall are you thread" touched on this...

I was in Turkey and got food poisoning, once. It also happened to be on a day trip, on a coach was about 130 degrees and I had the worst temp/vomitting/diahorrea you could ever imagine. I was delirious as my temperature was off the thermometer. Apparently I was singing nursery rhymes and simultaneously farting.....then vomitting into a plastic carrier bag that my girlfriend had to keep asking the bus driver to stop so it could be emptied. My girlfriend disowned me after Humpty DUMPty. I dread to imagine what the smell was like for everyone....(Maybe you were ON that coach?)

Anyway, I am sure that others will have been worse.....or even nearly died...

Care to spill the beans? (Urgh, that's transported me back to Turkey)

Hmmmm .......... Kidney stone - most excruciating pain I have ever experienced, had bouts of it for about two months as it "passed through the system".

You can't imagine how pleased I was to hear a 'clink' come from the urinal!

(Well you did ask! :) )

I bet.....

You can always tell when someone has a Kidney Stone. They are usually standing up but bent over at 90 degrees on a bed or table etc (like an upside down L) Groaning......

my brother suffers from recurring Kidney stones, once he drank loads of water to try & flush one through & it got stuck :eek: - he said the relief when he realised it had shifted & that his bladder wasn't going to burst was indescribable, but the sound when he did get rid was akin to shotblasting! :spin:

All the best for your happy (nappy?) event, my wife enjoyed it so much she's done it twice! Apparently the rewards outweigh the pain.

I'm reliably informed its the one chance you ladies get to experience the pain us guys go through with kidney stones. :rofl:

Only kidding angel I wish you as painfree and pleasant a delivery as is possible and your baby a long and happy life full of all the joy and happiness I know you will bring each other as that is what will make any pain involved worth bearing.

I got encephalitis as a complication of chicken pox when I was 10. It's like meningitis except it's your brain that swells rather than the membrane surrounding it. I lost most of my motor skills, was dizzy all the time, very sick and couldn't move my mouth properly to talk. I was in hospital twice (in isolation first time round, as it's so rare they didn't know what to do with me, or if it was contagious) and off school for a month.

It is often fatal and those who survive are frequently brain-damaged, but I made a 100% recovery. I didn't reailse how serious it had been for another 10 years or so ...

worst illness i ever had was glandular fever..i had the actual illness for 3months but then i got post viral fatigue afterwards.... the GF meant that walking to one side of the room made me completely knackered, my glands were swollen up and i couldn't swallow properly, i couldn't eat either....and i had a headache constantly for 3months and all i wanted to do was sleep...... the psot viral fatigue was just as bad....i got knackered just walking to the bathroom........ had to have 6months off work and had a few months off uni....

the problem with GF is apparently it stays in your body for like 3years or something, and now if i get over tired or run down, all my glands swell up again :cry:

Worst illness for me.
It would have to be easter time 2002....
I was ill for a few weeks with headaches and just fealing down. After having my temparture checked at the doctors i was rushed to hospital.
It turns out i had Menningitis (sp?)
I had to spend all easter in hospital feeling extremmly sick. I then had to be off school for a month or 2 as well.

Thinking back i relise that only my mum thought i was ill. My dad and Grandad thought i was faking it.

:(

I got third degree burns when my house burnt down when I was 12 (over 40% of my body). Luckily the only scar I have left is on the back of my left arm above my elbow. Very painful at the time.

While were on about pain relief, my preferred choice is Pethidine (sp??) ;)
