Jerry Lee,
My experience is that tolerance for pain is lowered by CH. Two months into the thing, and I start sweating with fear to set an injection of Imigran. Silly - the pain is _nothing_ compared to an attack.
But this may not be unusual. I once heard of a study that said that pain tolerance level was lowered after protracted periods of intense pain. Never found that report, but I asked a neurologist about this a few weeks ago when having a check-up (prolapsis, not CH), and he affirmed it. Still trying to find that study - any of you heard of it?
