re: Worst physical pain you ever had?

Used to get strep throat about 4 times a year. It just kept getting worse. The last one made me schedule a tonsilectomy/adenoidectomy at the age of 27. Had to spit in a cup by my bedside table because swallowing felt like I was swallowing broken glass. After the surgery, I vomited on a raw throat I had to teach myself how to swallow again and nearly choked several times. I don't cry much but cried like a little bitch after that. Since then I have never had a sore throat. That was 15 years ago.
