The worst thing thats happened to you

[geezus18]

hey fellas,
im just starting this thread up to see what kinda of shit people have had to go through. not just injuries but anything! ill get the ball rolling.

Last year i lost the control to move my left eye more than a few milimetres. It was like i was permanantly crossed eyed. It happened all of a sudden and out of the blue. i was vomiting from motion sickness (as i couldnt focus) and was scared shitless. I had to go to Flinders hospital in Adelaide and have shit loads of test done. including: a lumber puncture (big arse needle in my back that extracted brain fluid form a little sac near my back bone...while i was awake) another big test was having a ultra sound of the back of my heart, to do this they had to numb my throat and shove a fat tube down my throat for 10 mins while i was awake. I also had a hew MRI's, eye test and what not. Basically after a week they narrowed it down to a stroke (keep in mind i was 16 at the time) or MS (very unlikly). they came to a conclusion that a small blood clot passed through a small hole in my heart (1 in 3 have it) and travelled to the brain where it got stuck due to the thin veins. It took about a week to see well enough to get back to normal living but about 3 months until i could see fine again. I was off a bike for atleast two months and i wasnt allowed to play ANY physical activity.
Now days i have to have a asprin every morning to thin my blood to prevent a clot and im STILL waiting for a conclusion and solution..still no idea how they are gonna fix the problem. One was is to have heart surgery and get the hole in my heart closed up. Im having another MRI in July to make sure i dont have MS....i would hate to look at the medical bill as it would be over $10,00 for all the MRI's i had alone!!!

so yeah theres my worst experience ever...wat u got???

[Divy]

mine would be when i was in a car crash i brought it up in another topic,

i was 2yo a drunk driver drove straight over a round about an t-boned the car i was in it rolled a few times an the back windows glass went into the left side of my face, when the ambo's got there they thought i was dead because of the amount of blood over me an the large holes in my face
i ended up with 98 stiches on the left side of my face after that i had another 8 operations on my face to make the scars less visible last op was when i was 15yo now cause of all the ops you can only see tiny scars the doctors did a excellent job, so thats the worst thing for me

geezus man! that must of been so F#$KING scary i would of been crying like a bitch exspecaily with the lumber puncture ive been told its very painful an its good to hear thats your doing better

[geezus18]

cheers man,
yeah i was sketching out soooo bad..i was thinking how i wouldnt be able to go out and surf or motorbike ride anymore because of it..but luckily im pretty much 100% better i would hate to have it happen again..all i can remember is that rush of fear you get when it happens and you just sketch out and dont know what to do...

Sounds like that car crash was pretty bad..at least you cant remember it (im guessing). What happened to the drunk f*%& that hit you??? i hope he got in all kinds of shit!

Yeah the lumber puncture was the most painful....it took at least half an hour to find the spot and for that whole time that were poking and jabbing and im pretty sure that the local anasthetic wasnt strong enough coz i could fel EVERYTHING not just pressure, it was also weird coz it was jabbing the nerves down my back and it felt weird as hell. The MRI's are also weird, and boring. Just a whole lot of thumping and noises for half an hour.

[coolmodee01]

it's no good when you cant see

i broke both legs and cracked a couple of ribs when i was 17
i hit a set of doubles (a set that i had hit 50 times) to slow and made the choice to bail errrrrr!!! bad move
couldn't ride 6 months sucked big time

i hit a tree out the bush bout 2 year ago ended up 100 metres down a cliff (not steep)
i only broke my collar bone plus a few scratches from the trees

i made the executive decision to leave the big bikes alone and wen't and bought my 110

i still hert myself

go figure

[geezus18]

damn, both at the same time..what a bitch. O well atleast you got to burn around on a wheel chair
When i was in hospital for my vision i started crusen the halls on a wheel chair after about day 3. It kept me sane, by the last day i could do wheelies from my room down the hall way, do a 180 and come back and then do it again and again! and also just sit on the spot on the back wheel yewww! I woulda been bored shitless without one lol (got told off a couple of times but screw em..i was bored and getting restless lol)

Daughter born wothout oxygen, didn't breath on her own for 45 minutes, nearly died, helicopter to westmend, intensive care for 3 weeks. She is 7 now and is very smart but cant move, eat, or speak. She comunicates with a little touch screen computer (cost $18,000-) and uses it to type, use the PC, surf the net and control the tv and is at the top of her class at school so its not all bad.
The day she was born was the best and worst day of my life.

[geezus18]

thats real sad, i can imagine how much emotion that would of been going through you. The joy of having your daughter born but the fear of her dieing only minutes after you meet...Its terrible what happens to the nicest of people. Sounds like she is a special little girl and i hope the best for her
