I’ve had a double lung transplant with no epidural, I did physical therapy on ECMO, real pain is mentally disabling. I’ve broken both my arms, the first one I sat for 40 minutes before decoding I should go to urgent care, the other arm I drove myself there. Once you cross your personal threshold for pain you’re more animal than human.

Sounds like CF. I knew a chap who also had a lung transplant after spending a week on ECMO. I can’t even imagine what you both went through.
