Pain
They say “It’s weakness leaving the body”...
Your stomach and chest burn slowly as your body aches, the brain goes a hundred miles per hour. At this time your heart beats irregular sending tremors through your limbs and as you tremble your hands become clammy as well as your feet. You're consumed with thoughts of “why is this happening?” especially if this isn't the first experience you've had with pain.
Gradually as time passes by you become restless...restlessness creates a loss of appetite and then you start looking at yourself differently in the mirror at every scar that jogs memories of the smallest thing that offended you that you let slide it's now seeping through.

I like the almost frantic description of pain on offer here. It sounds very uncomfortable.

It was as if this was a scenario where someone was going through a heart attack or stroke.
Someone who was facing death and between life and death literally.
Quite a horrific and terrible state to be in.
