No you're right, it is baffling.(Original post by XcitingStuart)
Sorry, but how do you get a mouthful of sodium hydroxide in a lab whilst using a pipette? Did you put the end in your mouth or something to hold it for a moment?
(This post sounds really obnoxious, sorry.Just really baffled.)
Here's the thing, my school lab forgot to stock the normal pipettes (idiots I tell you). Time was running out, and all they had was (wait for it) open ended tubes, used for (dare I say it?) mouth pipetting.
Agh. Primitive.

I experienced the worst pain when I had a migraine. Roughly 15 min before the migraine I experienced an aura. After that when the pain started, I thought I was dying. I never knew a migraine could be that bad. I tried to sleep, but it was too much-I was literally screaming. My mum took me to the hospital. I was given a diary to record any symptoms in the future and was told to visit the hospital if I had a migraine again. Thank God it didn't happen again after that, it's been two years.

We should arrange to have it in the same hospital!Surely you'd rather I bore you to sleep rather than be put under anaesthetic? xD haha

I was on holiday in France and like all children I decided I was Spider-Man so jumped off a climbing frame. When I landed I hit my chin on my knee (with my tongue between my teeth) and guillotined my tongue; fortunately I only bit through about half of it and they were able to stitch it back on. Unfortuantely anaesthetic can't be used on tongues as it could fall back into your throat so the stitches were about a painful as the bite -

Period pain. Usually it's not too bad, but I've had a few episodes of dizziness and extreme temperatures. I never feel that I'll live past the first day. -

Pain every time is worst. its a part of life sometimes a hard time and then the next part of our life which is so joyful and happy so don't be afraid from any kind of bad time because it means it time passed away so don't take seriously.

Blocked kidney. I thought I was going to die from how much it hurt. I used to get migraines too but I knew what they were and knew it would be over before long and that helps make the pain manageable. With my kidney I was a vomiting, screaming, snotty mess. It was worse than giving birth and I didn't even get a baby out of it.

I've injured my right knee three times.
First time, a boy I used to fancy, ran into me in basketball and he banged his knee into mine and I fell to the floor. The immediate intense pain dulled after 3 mins and I carried on the playing the match but my knee was sore for days.
Second time, I was dancing to the hoedown throwdown from the Hannah Montana movie for old times sake, I was dancing like there was no one watching, because there was no one watching. Anyway, my moves got out of control and I kicked my right leg up high and I pulled something in my knee/leg. I collapsed to the floor, almost in tears because it hurt so bad. I I never told anyone about this injury cuz I was embarrassed. It was difficult and painful trying to hide the bad limp I had.
Third time, I twisted my knee by accident, fell to the floor in pain and I literally felt a bone or a joint shift back into place in my kneeLast edited by undine_monty; 05-11-2015 at 13:16. -

He said the pain was unimaginable because it was so bad. We thought he was exaggerating and gave him no sympathy. Oops. -

How scary! I've had the ones where I've been in so much pain where I can't walk and all I want to do is throw up. They do get better as you get older, thankfully.(having never had them as bad)

It's so comforting to hear that...I think period pains are weird to explain to people as they may not get it as bad and wont see what you're making a fuss about...I'm on the verge of screaming at times with my sister looking at me like(having never had them as bad)

So he ignored the pain but eventually passed out in agony. His friends called an ambulance and the hospital operated to remove the stone.
Like, gee, I have excruciating pain in my kidney. I could either go see a doctor, or, I guess, just blame a kebab I had yesterday and do nothing until I literally pass out. -

It sounds silly but kidney pain for the first time doesn't automatically scream "I'm your kidney and you're in a really bad way". It radiates and maybe it's your tummy or your back. Like Timmona's friend thought it was it was his guts, I thought I was having a miscarriage. Also extreme pain makes you stupid. Like lay down and let me die stupid.
