2-question mini-survey: pain & fear thereof
@Jssra After about 7.5, I have to *do* something about the pain. Knead it. Stretch it. Strike it. Force the joint through range of motion. Cause more discomfort to distract from pain I can't alter, or overload the sensation pathways. Even, yes, 'hit my head against the wall because it feels so good when it stops' - that was a very bad migraine.
So... I guess around 7.5 or 8 is where I get afraid I can't take it getting much worse. Hmm.
