  1. I was involved in a serious car accident 12 years ago.  The initial pain of many of the injuries I suffered was pretty bad, but the pain that ruled them all didn't happen until a week after the accident.  I needed surgery to repair a tibial plateau fracture of my left knee so back to the hospital I went for surgery.  Realign bone,  insert screws and done...well when I woke up after that surgery I was in pain that words cannot describe.  I was flailing around on the bed screaming.  The nurse asked me for my pain score on a 1-10 scale and I screamed 20 at her.  They were able to get some more meds on board pretty quickly, but the five minutes it took felt like hours.  

     

    At my follow ups the doc kept asking if I wanted the screws out......Never!
