The last time i broke a bone was when i was 6, the doctor twisted it around and i remember that it hurt but i didnt tell him because i wouldnt talk to him at all (didnt know i had aspergers then), the doctor didnt belive it was broken until my arm went an odd color, but it didnt really hurt.
I used to lie on the floor screaming because of period pain, but it was more then period pain cause the pain started when i was about 9 and all the doctors told me it was just in my head and that i was seeking attention, then told me it was because i was a coliac but i still dont think i am one, then found out i have PCOS so im guessing thats the reason for the pain cause i get it all the time, its usually not even painful when i have my period, i usually just get anemic and tired. So dont think either is worse but i have a very very very high pain tolarance cause i can cut into myself and feel nothing

Ive never broken a bone, but I can only imagine that would be much preferable to my painful periods. Mainly because I know a broken bone will heal with time, while my period will go on and on every month until menopause. Although, I really only get a light period every three months now because I'm on the birth control shot, but still have cramps that third month when the shot's coming due. They lay me out in bed for about three days. It sucks. And I know I have at least another 20 years of dealing with it. I would take a couple months of pain over that I think.
