i think that’s proof enough, 

Then you should award a delta as described in the subreddit rules.

but what do you think fits between?

Do you mean what is between a bone tumor and bowel issues? Lots of things.  There's a condition where someone's scar tissue becomes calcified, literally meaning any injury or damage becomes bone, eventually killing them (that one might be worse actually).  There's severe chronic skin issues that not only inflict pain and suffering, but also affect your appearance and make socializing difficult.  Tons and tons of medical conditions worse than having something like IBS.

I’m a doctor and the worst problems are those that affect breathing. Imagine not being able to breathe, feeling like you’re drowning in pulmonary edema or mucus. But yeah bowel problems are annoying. >

thank you for sharing that, i can most definitely see how breathing problems are a lot worse.

As a nurse with a history in oncology, I can tell you that one of the worst problems to have is a bone tumor. I have never seen anyone in more pain than a patient with a sarcoma in their femur.  Hell I literally had a patient who had served in Afghanistan and been wounded in the stomach by an IED, and he said would take that pain again in a heartbeat.  I had another patient who said, "oh thank God" with palpable relief when I informed him the surgeons had decided to amputate his leg.
There's no pain like having your bone split open from the inside. >

oh my god. i bet that really sucks, praying for your patients. >

Would you consider that worse than a bowel issue or do I need to provide more examples? >
