1 to 10, what is your tolerance level for pain (in your opinion)?

I would say about a 5! I guess it really depends on what it is.. I am ok with getting shots and things like that, but when I broke my leg it was nothing nice!

Depends here too. I don't mind shots or anything like that - things I am prepared for don't hurt as much. Elbowings and kicks to the face by a toddler are not prepared for and HURT a lot - sometimes bringing tears to my eyes. Labor pains weren't TOO bad till day 3 & 4 cause I was so tired and I was on pitocin.

I would probably say a 6 maybe.

Before endo, I would say lower, but now I'd in all honesty say around 8 or 9. I've never felt pain like that before, and I think I can handle it pretty well now, although it is no fun!

We will re-evaluate another IVF w/FET try in 2013.

I'm not sure what my pain tolerance would be since I haven't really been in many situations where I've had to deal with major pain. I had serious knee injuries in high school and they were pretty bad but I handled them well. I'm going to guess I'm maybe a 6 or 7?!?

8 or 9. Like Jackie said, with Endo you don't have a choice but to deal with it most days. That pain is sharp!

I had an all natural delivery with my son and didn't think it was too awful, so I must have a high pain tolerance. none of my piercings hurt, and my tattoo didn't either.

I'd say an 8 or a 9. I've made it through E.coli and a miscarriage and come through on the other side. That's not to say that I wasn't crouched over writhing in pain!
