>"Besides, pain is a temporary symptom. It either ends, or you die."
I like that, could be applied to trading too!
I feel for you. It's hard to remember pain, but, I can easily remember the nights sitting/sleeping on the couch, everything in your daily routine taking four times as long, trying to get in and out of the truck, and every little thing you don't think of until you can't move without pain! No pain meds here either. Just weeks of crap, as you say.
One suggestion - we have those little flat blue l.e.d. lights throughout the house in many outlets - no energy usage and you can see everything at night! :))
