Pure Pain

I had my nerve conductor test done in 2005 and boy was it painful.

All of my nerves in that region were isolated and I felt the entire thing. I felt like I was in shock therapy. What if I was a prisoner of war?

How stern would I stay if a non-ally was trying to torture me?

Would I give the location of the others or our safe house? How much pain could I tolerate?

I can tolerate tons of pain, this is the blessing and the curse of Fibromyalgia. I can be in pain and not realize it. I broke my wrist, it turned different colors and I still did not realize that it was broken.

It took me a month to realize that my wrist was broken, and the doctor put a cast on it. I think the itching hurt me more that the actual fracture.

Nonetheless, pain is pain.

I daily have to find my own balances of what I can and cannot tolerate.

Today, I hit my head as I got into a van and it did not immediately bother me.

Hours later, I can feel the overacting nerves and they are tingling right now.

Although, I can handle high amounts of pain, I hope to never have to get another nerve conduction test done.
