Please don't conflate pain relief with impossible-to-avoid-murdering-your-mother-when-you-feel-better syndrome. /s

Seriously, if I wasn't in as much pain as I am in then I would be out hugging people. Not hiding in my house, sitting on my hands to numb them and so I avoid touching a mouse for fear of searing pain for several days.

I promise I won't lead a (further) reckless life just because my idiopathic pain of 20 years is gone.
