Pain is an illusion, but I still couldn't tell you The Voice of Lews Therin - 28/01/2003 06:53:23 PM

I think the closest I came to figuring out where I am on the scale is when I had massive blood work done in the Fall. Oh, by the way, it turns out I'm in perfect health, have no nasty diseases, all my organs are in optimal condition and my sedimentation is ideal, whatever that last bit means. I was just really, really stressed out.

Anyway, they took something like 8 tubes of blood from me and the doctor kept losing the needle and having to stick me in multiple spots after the veins he was using stopped providing blood. He kept apologizing for the pain he was sure he was causing me but I just calmly watched him repeatedly stick me and didn't think it was that bad at all. Of course, I nearly collapsed from dizziness afterwards, but that's neither here nor there.

Where that puts me on the pain scale, though, is anyone's guess.
