ORIGINAL: ownedgirlie Interesting comments about equipping oneself with knowledge, remembering lists, and looking things up. I will just say that last night in the middle of something rather mind-boggling, I had an intense pain in my upper right abdomen, making it difficult for me to exhale. I had no idea what was wrong, but it was a sharp, extreme pain. I didn't think, "Hey let's stop this activity a moment so I can go look it up." I thought, "Oh fuck fuck fuck, strong, sharp, abnormal pain and I think something is seriously wrong." I mean it felt like I blew out an internal organ or something. Despite my head reeling and hardly being able to talk, information that my brain had already wrapped itself around came to the surface - "Something is wrong; this pain is not normal." and before I knew it, I was crying out (however slurred), "I hurt something, I hurt something" in a bit of desperation. Now, what's wrong with learning about different pains? Self preservation and survival of the fittest. I"M so proud of you![sm=applause.gif] You took care of you first. Personally, I think you are WAY up there on the girl who's using her noodle scale!
