For 2 hours I was in so much pain I couldn't even scream.
At the height of agony, the doctor leaned over me and said "did you know that the surface of your lung is as sensitive as your eyeball?"
I still get panic attacks whenever I think I feel any kind if chest pain, and it's been 17 years.

Why didn't they use anasthesia? And MaskedMan, why did you have your wisdom teeth pulled with no anaesthesia?????
For me the most painful thing was anal sex, and after that losing my virginity. Other than that I'm lucky to not have experienced much pain, except one time when I was a kid I got my feet stuck in a bycicle wheel! But there was nothing broken though, they just wrapped it with gauze at the hospital.
