    I don’t think it is noble, but dealing with minor aches and pains definitely makes major pains more tolerable. Accepting my ankle will be stiff for a few days after i roll it means I’m not out o commission when i wipe out on my bike and actually need Tylenol to go about my daily routines.

      Injury, sure. The pain is there to help you so you don’t make things worse. Pain in my extremities doesn’t bother me enough to take anything. Headache I find disabling, though. Headache can fuck off, the pain is not helping anything. I was so very relieved when I found the injectable sumatriptan, no dopy feeling no up no down just takes away the migraine after a very unpleasant rush.
