Thanks (db). The long term stress I was under have caused me to be numb to pain. I could easily go all winter without a coat because cold is a sensation I notice but am not bothered by. In the summer I like sunburns because the sensations when I touch my face or affected skin. I think that is why I was surprised over the pain when i am in the fight or flight mode. It eases up right after the situation is resolved but can be intense.
