That is amazing! Glad to hear that you finally found something that worked! It reminds me of when my wife tries to give me a shoulder massage. I usually ask her to stop right away, because once I realize what feeling good is like, then I realize that I was in pain (mild) before. Until I have the baseline to compare it to, I just go about my business and don't pay it much attention. Obviously your situation was much worse and so was your pain, it just brought that to mind.
