For quite some time, people have been posting numbers to describe the amount of pain that their headaches cause them.  There was no real "guideline" so that we were all on the same page....  until now.
 
Our friend Mr. Bob Kipple was up late with the demon late one night and put the pain that we had been speaking of into what has affectionately been named The Kip Scale.  I think you'll agree that what he's written down is right on the money.
 
Thanks for letting me put it up here Kip!
Pain level 0
No pain, life is beautiful
 
Pain level 1
Very minor, shadow's come and go. Life is still beautiful
 
Pain level 2
More persitent shadow's
 
Pain level 3
Shadow's are getting constant but can deal with it
 
Pain level 4
Starting to get bad, want to be left alone
 
Pain level 5
Still not a "pacer" but need space
 
Pain level 6
Wake up grumbling, curse a bit, but can get back to sleep with out "dancing"
 
Pain level 7
Wake up, sleep not an option, take the beast for a walk and finally fall into bed exhausted
 
Pain level 8
Time to scream, yell, curse, head bang, rock, whatever work's
 
Pain level 9
The "Why me?" syndorme starts to set in
 
Pain level 10
Major pain, screaming, head banging, ER trip. Depressed. Suicidal.

Get us a picture of this happy little pain chart, could ya?  We could blow it up into a large poster, take it to the next convention and invent a whole new dart throwing competition!  Prizes could be awarded for highest and lowest number of smileys poked!  That's about all the thing is worth.

This is about the best description I've ever seen except the nail should be at the other side of the eye, right by the temple.

LOL Those are the Wong faces....used for children age 3 and up until they can understand and verbalize the traditional numeric pain scale.
 
One night, I was working in the ER and this girl came in with a bad migraine.  She was wearing sunglasses and kept on laughing - said her pain was a 10.
 
This very well could have been true - we all react to pain differently, but I did talk to the nurse outside the room about it.
 
He said, "Pain is individual - we take it at face value."
 
OK...I agree with that.
 
So then I tell him that right at that moment, my headache pain was an 8.
 
Then he points to the Wong faces and says, "This is an '8' - you don't look like that, so you can't be having level 8 pain."
 
<sigh>
