  2. I did have to get an x-ray once. It was ahuge waste of time because I didnt even have anything wrong with me. I hit my finger on my stairs and we wanted to see if anything serious was wrong. We had to wait in our hosptitals waiting room forever just for the doctor to say that I was fine. Theres a few hindred dollars down the drain! But i remebered I had to be still and it was really cold. I hope I never have to go through that boring process again.

  3. I had an x-ray on my left wrist and my nose. I broke my left wrist Snowboarding. I kneed myself in the nose on a trampoline, so that is why i had to get x-rays on my nose. I almost broke it, but i didn't. I was a little crooked but the doctor said not to worry about it.

  4. I had an x-ray on my collar bone when i was in 4th grade. It was on my collar bone because I had fallen off of the monkey bars and snapped it. It looked a little like a moutain or(^) like that but not as steep. The reasaults where simlpy me collar bone was broken and my collar bone is still out of place to the point to where you can only barely feel where i broke it. That is how i broke my collar bone and what my x-ray looked like.

    i have had an x-ray before. i had to get one when i went to the dentist. it looked like my everyday teeth. but when we went to go do the x-ray i had to put my head in this big-o things, and it spund around my head, it was really werid. the dentist lady person said i couldn't move or it would mess everything up. but anyway, that was the only time i have ever had an x-ray.

  9. I had a x-ray once. It was when I was in fifth grade. I was playing soccer and fell and I thought I broke my arm. My dad rushed me to the hospital. I had never felt a pain like that. It hurt so bad. Luckily I didnt brake my arm I only sprained it. i dont remember the results but i know that it hurt and before the x-ray i was almost positive it was broken.

  15. i went to the hospital to get and x-ray because i almost broke my leg at the clay hills when i stomped on a stake as i was running down a hill. the x-ray was not scary it was cool and it didnt hurt at all. Although the lady told me that i could not stare at the picture machine or i would go blind because of the lazers in the machine that could see through your skin.

  16. I NEVER HAD TO HAVE AN X-RAY BEFORE. X-RAYS SOUND REALLY DUMB THOUGH. I KNOW WHAT I AM DOING AND I WATCH WHAT I DO. I AM GLAD I NEVER BROKE A BONE BEFORE IT SOUNDS REALLY PAINFUL. I DON'T EVEN KNOW THE PURPOSE OF X-RAYS. YOU COULD KNOW RIGHT AWAY IF YOU BROKE A BONE BECAUSE YOUR BONE IS NOT THERE NO MORE AND IT IS WOBBLY OR IT COULD EVEN BE KRIKID. SO YOU WOULD KNOW YOURSELF WHEN YOU HAVE A BROKEN BONE. IT WOULD STINK TO HAVE A BROKEN BONE ESPECIALLY A BROKEN LEG BNECAUSE YOU WOULD BE CRIPPLED. BEING CRIPPLED WOULD STINK AND YOU WOULDN'T GET TO DO ANYTHING. LOL :}

  17. When I was a Junior in high school, we were having a preseason practice, 2 days before our first game with Raton. We were going through tackling drills and I went to tackle the ball carrier. He dropped his head as we made contact, driving his helmet into my left shoulder. As soon as we made impact, I could feel my shoulder separate, and I instantly dropped to the ground, pain searing through my shoulder.
    My dad cut off my jersey and slowly removed my shoulder pads, trying not to move me, but every twitch sent fresh shocks through my body. Using my torn jersey for a sling, my dad slowly got me in his truck and drove me to the emergency room.
    An hour passed before they finally got me to the x-ray room, and almost as long to get me some pain killers. After the x-rays they upped the dosage of pain killers, and sent me to a state of near complete unconsciousness. I drifted in and out of sleep until the doctor finally popped my shoulder back into place, which brought me quickly back to reality. The pain quickly subsided, and I drifted back under.
    Later, when looking at the x-rays, I didn't feel so wimpy for being in so much pain. My shoulder had been completely separated from the socket, and it was stabbing into my ribs, 5 inches lower than it should have been.

  19. I have had an x-ray on my wrist and finger when I fell on it. It took over an hour sitting in a room, plus the time I had the x-ray. The results came out to that I had sprained from the tip of my pinky finger down to my for arm. I cannot remember what the x-rays looked like so I cannot describe what it looked like.

  22. Yes, I have had many x-rays one x-ray I had to get is on my leg because I broke my leg in softball. We were having a game in Las Animas and I was sliding into homebase when all of a sudden I felt like something was wrong. Turned out my foot had gotten stuck underneath the base so it broke my leg.

  26. I have never had an x-ray. I have never needed one because I have never been hurt serious enough to need an x-ray. I would never want to have an x-ray because it sounds like it would be boring and I would never want to be hurt serious enough because im sure it would seriously hurt.

  27. When I was 10 my sister shut the door in my face. She almost broke my nose. We went in for X-Rays and the doctor said it was almost a break. I remember having to be very still and not liking the feeling. Then last year I slpped on soem rubble and fell about 20 feet down a hillside fracturing my ankle. I was sure it was broken because of the odd angle at which it was twisted but it turns out when I got the X-Rays that it was only a minor fracture and nothing to worry about. I just needed crutches and time to let it heal. I feel very lucky that I didn't break anything that day and I don't ever want to have to go through the experience of breaking a bone

  32. I have had only one x-ray which is surprising considering all the web redemption i deserve. The x-ray I had was on my hip and its better know. But the creepy thing of the x-ray is it was extremely cold. We did a find a little problem but it was quite an expirence. The docter kept staring at the wall and would laugh at my mom. This guy was a creep. I hope he's okay know. X-rays can help alot but it gives alot of money to the hospitals

  34. i have had a x-ray before it was not because i broke a bone but it was because something on by back. When i was young something was on by back and my mom was conserned about it so they took me to the hospital and i got an x-ray. As a young kid i thought that is was cool and i liked it. Nothing was rong but i thought that it was fun and it was something cool to see. i also got one for my teeth. one tooth was trurned around and they wanted to see why so i got another x-ray. it was not that cool but it was cool to see what it looks like after words.
