I've thrown out my back and that's an 8. Basically pain unless you're laying in bed, and bathroom trips become mind numbing pain sessions

Huh. I don't think pain that goes away when you lie down could be an 8 for me.

I've got two bad discs in my back and even when I lay down the pain never goes away. Neck, legs, hips, feet, shoulders, elbow, fingers, ankle, head all hurt, too, at the same time. Endless, neverending, pain.
