I'm new to this, but really enjoyed this pain scale! Most days I've been at 6-7. Every once in a blue moon, it'll go down to 4-5, but I would say it never goes below that and yes, it has gone to 10, only they didn't call the police, thank you God! This morning I would say I'm at 8-9. I just wish that the doctor would give me something stronger for pain! I'm actually going to another dr on Friday to see what he will do for me. Keep your fingers crossed please! Anti-inflammatories haven't worked, only killed my stomach with food.

I love it!!! It's funny I seem to go from the 1-2 and skip the rest just to get to the 8,9, and 10. And quickly. I love #10...in print only. Thanks for the smile.

That is hilarious! Very true, however. Thanks for the chuckle
Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.

Laughing ha ha ha

This is awesome. I'm sorry to say I have actually been at number 10 and they did knock me out. They gave me diluaded. Of course, they couldn't fix me and I was a mess and the poor dr.s just wanted to get rid of me because I would not stop complaining and causing trouble. I was a total brat that night because I needed relief.

Anyways, great post! Only people who have lived with me get this as well. Smile

Best to all of you!

I am not a doctor and my advice is purely my opinion which should be regarded as such.
