OMFG!

If ever there was evidence of a higher being this has to be it. Only Satan herself could concoct such an exquisite torture device. I bow before her mighty powers. If Satan’s real, then God must be too.

Until the painkillers kicked in, I’d have been prepared to believe the sea was made of custard if it would have stopped the pain.

Not necessarily. I might be persuaded to credit the existence of The Devil, as he/she does frequent ‘commercials’.

On the other hand, God don’t say diddly.

Noted. By the way, your particular observation about kidney stones forms part of the plot of the movie “The Bank Job” that I saw some of, today.

Pancreatitis might outdo kidney stones for pain.

I know of people with pancreatitis who’ve been kept in the ‘half-dream’ room on morphine and pethidine, because, if they were fully conscious, they’d upset everyone else by screaming the place down 24 hours a day.

The Doc reckons it’ll pass in a couple of days. I hope so. I’ve never experienced anything quite like that level of pain.

Cellulitis is very painful. If you lay perfectly still you can tolerate it apart from the pain everytime your heart beats but you can forget moving or putting any weight on it.

Saw Ep.1 last week and it was very good.

THE REAL WHITE QUEEN AND HER RIVALS.

Friday 28th February at 8.35 pm (60 minutes)
Channel: SBS
Real White Queen And Her Rivals Series 1, The Ep 2. Author Philippa Gregory tells the interweaving stories of the women who were decisive figures in the War of the Roses. Gregory brings a rich story of intrigue, betrayal, love and bloodshed vividly to life. For Gregory these women matter as much as the kings and nobles in this age of instability and dynastic feud. She describes the lives of Elizabeth Woodville, the White Queen, a commoner whose beauty enchanted a king and who suffered shocking tragedy as she struggled to hold a grip on the throne for herself and for her children. Gregory also brings to life the woman who would be queen to Richard III, the heiress, Anne Neville. Gregory also reveal the real character of Margaret Beaufort, mother of the Tudor dynasty. (Part 2 of 2) (From the UK) (Documentary) (History) PG CC

God was just invented by Satan to trick people into being evil.

I don’t see anywhere in the old testament that satan tells anyone to kill anyone

god , well , virtually every page is him ranting on about who to kill next, how and why.

I’m told kidney stones is more painful than childbirth

What would be ultra bad, being sea sick, and having lock jaw at the same time.

Separately – so they can make the comparison as to what was worst.

this is the most rediculous of all comparisons. Pain is different to everyone and not all pain is equal.
Pain, when you know the pain is going to end (as in childbirth) is not the same as an unknown pain, or a pain where you don’t know if there’ll be an ending.

Not so bad today, The old testament grade pain has been tamed by the wonders of modern medicine.

I can easily imagine in less enlightened times that people could see this as a punishment from a wrathful deity or being cursed by a witch with a grudge.

Good to hear of some relief.
I think Matthew Flinders suffered greatly from kidney stones. He referred to it as ‘the gravels’ or something similar. It was totally debilitating for him in his later life.

I guess you could say that in some respects you are in the same boat as Matthew Flinders. :)
