Childbirth is nothing compared to

    but how would you know. men cant experience childbirth for comparison.

    Ever been kicked in the balls?

    The same argument works in reverse, how can a woman know that no man has felt pain paramount to child birth?

    For the dental pain, try Benzocaine or Zidocaine. You can buy benzocaine in your drug store under the brand name Oragel. It's just a liquid you rub on your gums to numb the pain.

    I'd love to have a portable canister of nitrous oxide. I could take a time-out any time I want without the difficulties of trying to sleep.

    My worst pain (and it was worse than childbirth) was with recurrent corneal erosion. Its like the top layer of your cornea isn't growing right, and for some reason, it erodes, leaving exposed nerve endings in your eye, and it hurts to blink or open your eye because the eyelid scrapes against the eroded cornea. During my worst episode (and it happens over and over again, hence the name 'recurrent') I had mentally come to terms with losing an eye and it would have been a relief. I truly thought it was over. I didn't open the eye for 17 hours - my husband had to take me and lead me into the eye doctor. Fortunately they had a numbing drops and fortunately its under control now. It was the worst pain ever.

    I just had my wisdom teeth pulled yesterday. It wasn't as bad as I imagined. I was scared. My only problem now is the pain meds make me queasy.

    My worst pain: Childbirth followed closely with a Kidney Stone.

    All mine came through when I was about fourteen. They never gave me any problems.

    I've got a gap in between my teeth, but my teeth are good. I saw no reason to fook about with them. If the gap's unsightly to some, I really don't care. It's nature's way of helping me to enjoy spaghetti.

    same here. i wasnt even sure i had mine considering all the pain stories i'd been told over the years. i had to count my teeth to work out mine were through. and im still not convinced. :)

    You know, all four of mine came in without issue. My teeth were straight never had braces. Then about 2 years ago, I chipped one eating ice, a bad habit I used to have. It started giving me problems, so they took all of them. Even before I had a problem the dentists wanted to take them. I used them! They will be missed.

    That was a sweet ode to your teeth.
    I have all of my wisdom teeth, but have had to fight tooth (lol) and nail to keep them. Everyone is always foaming at the mouth to take them out.
    I would miss them too.

    He he......never liked going to the dentist. I have this weird phobia of scraping and drilling sounds. I don't hardly remember yesterday at all, they gave me this narcotic/benzodiazepine cocktail. I'm still a bit confused today.........

    I actually shaved a mohican onto a hippie, I'll have you know, so I sympathise with dentists. It's a stressful occupation when you're drunk.

    Cherish them............ha ha....sorry, I'm still on pain meds. Dentists are weird about the wisdom teeth. 'Oh, they are hard to clean, etc, etc.' And if you need a filling in one forget about it.

    :D

    I knew a dentist in college that would get so drunk, when he stood up, it was like someone tilted the world on him. It was quite a sight to see. He was known as fall down Dan. He also liked to hit the Nitrous Oxide.......

    I think he was foaming at the mouth thinking about how much money he could make off my little family. lol
    I have switched recently and my new one is cool and isn't all hot to rip them out. I won't. No way. I just won't show up. I never had a cavity my whole life until the aforementioned foamer came into play. All of a sudden i have 2!
    I don't really think I had them at all.

    gall stones are more painful. i know this from experience. :)

    i have to agree. i've had 2 kids...one regular...one c section. i've had umpteen cancer surgeries/chemo/radiation. i even hit a windshield at 70 mph and lost some of my upper lip, tip of my nose and most of my top teeth in an instant. none of those beat gall stone pain. hitting the windshield hurt worse than anything on earth...but really only for a split second. gall stones linger..you can't lie down, you can't sit up, you can't stand...and the whole world narrows down to that pain that can last hours and hours. ugh just thinking about that makes me have phantom gall bladder pain.
