    Very true.

    (I may have half this thread on ignore, but the comments I'm seeing quoted really are getting up my nose - which obviously meant I was right to put certain people on ignore! ;))

    Ive never put anyone on ignore but i'm seriously thinking about it.
    I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

    Pain is different for everyone. What for me might be minor, might be major for someone else.

    Very true.

    I myself have a very high pain thresshold & was pleasantly suprised when I gave birth after watching people on tv & hearing the other women screaming i'd expected much much worse. :(

    I was terrified too, especially when I got to the labour ward & heard all the women screaming. :eek:

    I had gas & air so I wasn't as brave as you. :rotfl:

    Is it a high pain threshold you have or a high pain tolerance? My tolerance is high - most people who look at me would not know I'm in constant pain unless I tell them! - but my threshold is artificially low, thanks to chronic fibromyalgia.

    I can never get pregnant - would be endangering my life given my spinal damage - but I do wonder whether giving birth would be anything like the pain of having both hips and both shoulders grinding in and out of position for hours on end as they do during my hormone surges! I'm curious, honestly.

    Oh, and on the subject of putting people on ignore... I have borderline high blood pressure, and I find I get far less migraines with half a dozen people on ignore than I did before I did that! Saves my sanity, what's left of it. ;)

    Unfortunately Agency Nurses are sometimes not even trained. I sent many home preferring to manage with a pair of hands less because they were a liability. A certain nationality of nurses were well known for sharing a registration number. Some I swear had never set foot in a hospital except as patients.

    Just when was it that you nursed?

    I don`t recognise any nurses with the authority which you claimed to have.

    You are retired yes?

    Agency nurses in your time?

    Fantasist i think.

    It fits in well with you Knowledge that doctors send for endrocinology reports for obese patients as standard practice.

    Get real or get out is my advice.

    Sorry, I really think questioning someone's professionalism is way out of order.

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton
