Forget Superman, I'm not even Kent!



Backstory

I think I have the lowest threshold of pain that a human can have. What makes it even worse is I'm surrounded by men who are capable of surviving situations that most don't even believe are real when they see it recreated in a movie. Sigh. I pull a muscle in my neck and I can't sleep for a week even with prescription narcotics; I sink to new levels of pathetic with each passing year.

Believe says,

Then stop taking the pills and use them instead as upcoming Christmas gifts. Everyone loves narcotics!

Mourningdove says,

Do you scream when the blood pressure cuff is squeezing you? That is the lowest pain threshold in my opinion. ; )

Steve__Anthony says,

Maybe if you try to be YogaMan. - Just a thought.

Believe says,

Congrats on the feature.

L2L3 says,

Maybe try a starter superhero like Captain Underpants? For the sake of anyone around you, may you at least be able to suffer silently;-} Congrats on the feature!

Mourningdove- I don't scream but have had some idiot nurses try pumping it up to 200 for a third time in a row and I "helped" take the cuff off. With me, they get two tries at blood sticks and blood pressures.

BanjoDan says,

Congrats on the confession and feature!

ba_miracle says,

Well on the bright side, a low tolerance/endurance for pain can serve as an early detection system for some serious illness.

Loon says,

how about Clark.....Griswald?

DynamicDbytheC says,

As long as you get Lois Lane to nurse your aching body, who cares?
