I recently had headaches for three days straight - woke up with one on day 3 - and the feeling of waking up without one was wonderful the next day. It was probably among the first times I really became concious of what lil describes in her post, the wonderful freedom of not being in pain. You really can't learn to appreciate that fully until you have experienced more persistent, extended pain, I think.
