Lol... I walked down a slope late at night 5 years ago or so without anything but the moonlight... unfortunately, somebody had unbeknownst to me at the time recently dug out an 9 foot drop for a large poly rain tank and poured concrete at the base. Feet came out from under me, spun sideways, dropped that height, and busted a few ribs on the tank or on the slab, I couldn't tell...still don't know it was so quick and hard...
...plus I got the breath knocked out of me for approximately a minute..
Went to work the next day. Took months to be pain free.
This current pain was worse, and made worse by my long-standing refusal to take any over the counter painkillers. I relented by the 6th hour in the ER waiting room, and the pain was marvelously a dull thud after that.
Funny how they give acetaminophen to people with a kidney issue....
