I was sick a few years ago with a stomach virus. Haven't been sick in, maybe, 3 years. Before that, I don't think I've been sick in a long, long time. Although, I had Scarlett fever when I was like 8. That sucked. Mmm. But breaking my arm in three places was probably worse. Also when I was 8, ironically.
Also been in a coma for a couple weeks, but that wasn't really bad. Just like a dreamless sleep. Although, getting a catheter and intubation tube yanked out is some serious pain. Feels like your throat/urethra is getting scraped from the inside. Which it is, I guess.
Bleh... it's the main reason I never stuck with softball. I played soccer. Got hit in the fact with the ball a lot, but at least that bitch was soft lol
Lol. I don't even remember choosing 1992 as my birth year. I'm 1993. And you look and act more mature than your age. **NOT SAYING YOU LOOK OLD** lmao please don't confuse the 2
Lmao. That pic is hilarious. Have you ever seen this pic being used as a meme when it says something like "how you react when you get a text message"? Lmao
I'm like the queen of injuries. Was in a car accident back when I was at the wee age of 14 that left me in the ICU, and in-hospital for several months after. Had my first ever seizure (self-diagnosed as non-epileptic, came about mostly due to being super stressed over an issue with my boyfriend + exhausted in general) a week ago from today.
As for being sick, I'm pretty lucky. The sickest I've ever been was probably strep-throat around grade 3. Which I got twice cause I was bad with finishing up my antibiotics. 😩
haha no worries. I'm feeling okay now.. mostly recovered from the latest incident. If anything, more tired and shaky (no pun intended) than usual from the AED's the er-doc put me on temporarily than anything else. :P
probably not. I mean.. it happening the first time was super weird and unlikely enough in itself. I don' t have epilepsy or anything so lets just keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best, I guess. :P
well.. yeah. I mean, perhaps there is a fine line of 'too much' that you have to toe as in not caring so much that it becomes self-destructive. Which I've also found to be a bit challenging in the past but, you live and you learn!
When I was a baby I would get tonsillitis, chest infections, and ear infections A LOT. It carried on with tonsillitis up to the point where I was getting it every other week until I became immune to amoxicillin. Then I got them taken out at 13. I had a double spiral fracture on my leg when I was 6. Last year was the first time I got sick in nearly 2 years and I had strep throat which was AWFUL. Since then I've had the cold once and am currently fighting what could be a cold or another round of strep throat. (I'm in early stages)
Whoa, immune to amoxicillin. I had plenty of issues, but mine never even got that bad. I hope you're not dealing with more strep, though. Fingers crossed that it's just a cold.
The worst most recent one was definitely that massive fucker of a flu in combination with a pneumonia that I only just recovered from a few weeks ago – seriously being rushed into hospital with a 42+°C fever while you can't stop shaking, feeling this nausea and constantly having to throw up and having trouble and a terrible pain breathing is just scary as hell! Tbh judging by their facial expressions when they picked me up even the paramedics weren't sure I was gonna make it so I'm even more glad that I actually have!
Illness: 7th grade I caught strep throat for 2 weeks, then I got the stomach flu right after. I was out of school for over a month lol.
Injury: I was in 5th grade and in my basement at home running on the treadmill. I was watching TV as well. I got distracted and lost my footing. I tripped and got flung back and wedged between the wall and the treadmill belt (going very fast). My legs were covered in burns. Literally had no skin on the front of my legs at all lol. And also left a dent in the wall as well lol.
It wasn't an illness, but I had an ovarian cyst that grew out of control. It ended up getting so big that I looked about six months pregnant. I had to have surgery to get it removed. They drained six and half liters of fluid from me.
Also, a sprained ankle isn't a big deal but the last time I got one, I ended up getting arthritis in my ankle. So that sucks for me whenever it's going to rain, snow or if it's humid.
More like once every 9. last major injury was rupturing something in my knuckle from punching my car last major sickness was... ok I've got nothing on that. but it seems like Malaria is the only thing that can knock me down. I've been in a room full of people with 'flu... and i was just happy as hell while the nurses were concerned i'd contact something... please..
it was weird how it happened. some old lady drove reckless and cut me off and in my attempt not to hit her, i swerved off the road and my car (new car too) flipped. eventually stopped on its side. I climbed out james bond style... i was completely fine, but when i saw the situation of my car... and the cops won't let me ask her if she was retarded, i snapped and punched my roof, ruptured something i think. didn't even know lol. last time i bled like that, half my knee was taken out. didn't feel that either. my friends call me wolverine... im a freak.
I'm sorry to hear of such shitty drivers. I mean, I have a bit of road rage, but I don't cut people off, hah. Be thankful that you're like that physically, though. It's great that you're healthy there.
I was born 7 weeks premature. I had febrile seizures as a baby and nearly died. On multiple occasions. I fell off a horse and bruised my collarbone so badly that I was more bruise than human. I wrenched my knee when I was a frosh and still have to wear a knee brace. I had the absolute worst flu ever last winter. I couldn't eat anything for almost a week.
Got bit by a car at 13, it was rather fun flying in the air but I had minor scratches nothing serious. while rollerblading I fell on a glass bottle and my palm caught the cuts, I had 13 stitches. I'm forever scarred!! as well as my immune system which sucks ass, I get sick every fucking year... I'm not the lucky one 😭😭😭
I had tonsillitis when I was two. My symptoms started with multiple ear infections over a year. The entire next year I was on amoxicillin (an antibiotic). During the last year (I was four) my tonsils began swelling to the point that I couldn't eat most days and occasionally couldn't breathe. Once I was diagnosed, they removed my tonsils and I've been relatively healthy since.
I have had: -busted up knee and ankle due to motorcycle accident -rib contusions on multiple occasions -mononucleosis -chicken pox in my teens -tonsilitis and strep throughout my childhood -a lung infection I couldn't clear because I'd had an appendectomy the week before and it hurt to cough -constant ear infections throughout my childhood
Broke my jaw in 3 places while playing football at university. That also came with upper and lower busted lips and 4 broken nerves on the right side of my face, somewhat putting a downer on my smiling.
On the bright side, I am one of those lucky f***s who only gets a cold once every 5 years.
First of all the fractures were unusual so they took longer than usual to heal properly. During the healing process parts of the bone became infected so they had to remove the metal plate they fixed inside my face during a 2nd operation. Then the scarring around the outside of the bone was growing bigger and bigger so I had to have a 3rd operation to get that fixed.
Worst injury: Very bad tumble while playing ultimate frisbee. Not a fracture, but a severe bruise on my thigh, couldn't walk right for a week. Worse than breaking my wrist.
Worst sickness: Does asthma count? If not, then the flu.
Ya but it's like always with a small cold. My body's probably strategizing, saying: Hey, if I keep this cold, then other sicknesses will stay away! And now I'm basically used to it so I'm mostly immune
I don't know, do asthma attacks count because those made me feel really shitty especially the very first one I had at 8 years old. I was freaking the hell out because I didn't know why I woke up having a hard time to breathe. Injury wise I've only dislocated one of my fingers playing football and I had to wear a cast for a few weeks.
Yeah, I've heard the chicken pox are worse in general the older you get. Not fun. I never had them thankfully. I definitely count panic attacks. I know how bad they can be. :(
For sure. I looked liked I had stalagmites growing on my face, lol. But this was when before the vaccine was common, when parents had chicken pox "parties" for their babies, so they could just get it over and done with. Now reading everyone else responses I feel like a lucky fuck.
One time I got a flu (or some kind of virus) that was so severe that my entire body was in near debilitating pain. I had to take muscle and joint pain-killers, rub Voltarin all over my body, and take multiple hot showers before I felt any relief.
samee never broken a bone/never gotten seriously sick/never been to an emergency room. colds like once a year and a paper cut when im getting too cocky lmao *ion wanna jinx it*
I don't get sick very often. I got food poisoning once, and that was horrible. I've been in more accidents than I can count, though. Getting hit by a car as a kid was the closest I have come to dying.
It's good you don't get sick, but to hear about all those accidents... :( I'm sorry. I hope you haven't had any bad repercussions from those body or mind-wise.
Thanks! For the most part, I don't struggle too much with any lasting injuries. One knee hurts all the time, but it's not unbearable. I had lots of adventures accumulating all my injuries, and I don't regret them one bit.
I once fainted on Christmas in the bathroom and had trouble breathing for 3 weeks. And there also was something wrong with my ears but I don't know the English word for it. However all those things happend around the same time 😒😞
I don't really know what happened. I just know that one moment I was brushing my teeth and one second later I was laying on the ground and had trouble breathing.
I've had stitches under my eye from a fall when I was little, I've had strep throat on and off for a decade (until they finally took my tonsils out at 21) and I have a torn meniscus in my left knee.
I first injured my knee in gym when I was 12, I fell on the gym floor knees first. Then about ten years later I fell again knees first on pavement. Went from a minor pain to a bigger pain lol.
I got pneumonia when I was 3 years old and was in the hospital. I got it on Christmas day and it's became my first memory, of waking up and having issues walking.
