My point was: if it does not permenantly incapacitate me or kill me instantly I will probably survive. Also yes you can NOT notice you are woulnded, I
took a 2 inch long, 1 inch deep gash to my leg once and never noticed because I was too busy running for my life from a bull (about 6-7 years old I
believe). Got that because I failed to clear the fence in one leap like my sister did. None the less I never noticed till I got back to the house and
my mom noticed I was bleeding and grabbed me, I noticed the blood and long story short: it got treated and the scar is gone now. However that shows
that yes adrenallin can mask pain COMPLETELY when its at an all out spurt.
I doubt anyone in the field will have the chance to run IV lines and dope themselves. Remember that this stuff is new, started to show up during
WW1-2. The oldest "nerve killer" was opium or bottles of 100 proof like moonshine or rum. You do NOT need the IV to live or a pain killer, just
keeping your head about you is more than enough. Yes the others might increase your chances of living a bit but none the less, even with IV's and
dope and having some guy freaking out like mad is NOT going to help them survive. Besides if someone shot me and I lived, I would make DARN shure I
lived long enough to hunt him/her down and gut them like a fish.
A side note: Wyrdone: if a bear, grizzly, wild cat, pack of wolves or any wild animal showed up and wanted to have me for lunch and I did NOT
have a gun on me at the time I would take out the machete and combat knife and yell "yeehaa" while charging. They will have to work for their lunch.
I think the point people are trying to make right now is: KEEP YOUR HEAD ON YOU AND KEEP A HEALTHY ATTITUDE!
Might sound impossible for some but none the less it will greatly increase your chances of survival.
Now_Then: in a situation X type happening, you would not survive that either, that requires a hospital which would be NON EXISTANT! I am talking
about realism should anything truely happen when you are NOT near medical treatment.
By the way I would like to see you survive having half your body blown off, both legs blown off, arms blown off, loosing your innards because
they are little bits of dust all over the place, falling from a VERY high place (where I am that means falling off a cliff some 1000 feet straight
down onto rocks) and having yourself riddled with bullets and having to crawld your bloody stump some 10 hours to the nearest hospital which may or
may not be able to help you. Not to mention having multiple viruses and diseases strike you all at once, such as in biological warfare. If you can
survive that: you are not human by any means AT ALL.

Just wondering about the effects of bullet wounds on the human body. If shot in a survival type scenario, without hospitals or medics, what bullet
wound/wounds could you survive, what would be untreatable, what wounds could you treat yourself, what equipment do you need, and what happens to your
insides by the bullet and the wound. Is there any websites which could offer me information about this? Or just some expert know how? Anything would
be nice
