Two years ago, I had a throat infection, behind the tonsil that pushed said gland into my throat somewhere and prevented me from eating/drinking. I had to have surgery and a five day hospital stay.
When I was 3 I apparently had an asthma attack that landed me in an oxygen tent. The worst thing that came of that is they had me in diapers again after I had been potty trained, so when I got better and went home, I had to be retrained.
I had a very bad case of Jaundice when I was born, plus one side of my face was rather numb and therefore it was drooping, which has resulted in my underlip being a tiny bit crooked/droopy on one side.. or at least now it is. It used to be far worse when I was a kid, but nowadays it's not at all noticable.. luckily (it took me years to learn how to smile without it being crooked). Anyway, it was so serious that they for a long time didn't think I'd ever be able to speak properly, and it wasn't until I was like 1.5 years old that I started talking. There's nothing wrong with me today (:shifty:), so I guess I'm pretty lucky :)
Other than that I didn't get chicken pox until I was 18, so it was really bad. I had a gazillion of them all over my body.. like, literally all over - even down my throat, which resulted in me getting open soars in my throat and it was basically extremely painful. I didn't eat for like 4 days, and when I finally started eating something it was yoghurt thinned with water. Ugh, I hate being sick.
Hmm... I had bronchiolitis a few years ago, and I was out of commission for about 2 and a half weeks. I think that was the worst thing I ever had.
Never really had anything serious, when i was 10 i had a temperature and dizzyness for a week, everytime i literally even leaned up out of bed i threw up:eek:
Last year I got so sick I thought I was dying (and I don't exagerate these things). Every 5 or so minutes, there would be this extremely awful pain in my abdomen (I have a history of belly-area pain, and nothing compares to this. It was baaaaad). I couldn't explain it, and my because my dad was sick (apparently he is priority, even though his sickeness wasn't pain-related.) I didn't get taken to the doctor. It lasted about three days. I swear I thought I was going to die and nobody cared.
I didn't die though!!
I've never been really ill. I've had sickness bugs, flu, constant migranes, throat infections, tummy bugs etcetera; that's about it. However, once I thought that I was very ill. I had very bad sharp pains in my chest all the time but after a week or so I decided to see a doctor and found out that I was actually making myself have the pains due to worry/stress. ugh! :jess:
I had really bad flu one Christmas. I can't remember whether it was 1996 or 1997; my only recollection is that the Spice Girls were Christmas number one.
It started on the last day of term (I remember feeling really achey and sick in Science class and the end of term assembly), and I was still recovering when I went back. I has a really husky voice as I had laryngitis as a secondary infection, and everyone took the p!ss. :mad2:
I also had a cough that lasted well into March. :(

I have self induced sleeping sickness and its stuffed my body up. I have to go to the hospital every month to get my blood work checked to make sure that everythings alright and yes it hurts.
I had a cyst on my neck and had to get it operated four time from the time I was four to eight years old because the damned first two doctors didn't know how to do the operation but they volunteered anyways. :mad2:
Needless to say, I'm cyst free now. However, I still hate the "smell" of a hospital, it scares me.
The sickest I've ever been was with the flu. Only threw up a few times...but I was in bed for 2 days and could hardly move because my muscles ached so much...probably because i wasn't drinking many fluids at first...
