Apparently a high pain tolerance runs in the family, my dad and my sister were both talking about it, too.

When I had my appendicitis, I wasn’t sure if I just had bad gas or my appendix was inflamed. A friend had a bad time with a customer and was flinging rusty ladder around and took a rather large chunk of my arm out and I just kept eating my sandwich.

I’ve fallen off of my OneWheel, almost separated my shoulder and have had blood pooling into my sock and I just shrugged.

Fell off my wheel, dislocated m my thumb and would have even bothered with the hospital but I was 50/50 on whether I broke it or not… and I didn’t know how to put it back in the right pace anyway.

High pain tolerances are actually kind of bad - it’s hard to tell when you’re actually really hurt.

@EnochianEntropy I took have a high pain tolerance. Kind of good for getting sleeve tattoos but also bad, when it hurts it really effing hurts. LoL

I also push myself.way to hard in my Muay Thai class because it. I've had coaches pull me back or tell me to break.
