that us girls feel the pain very badly EVEN though I too, believe we have very high pain thresholds, mother nature has set it up that way.
As for length of attack, we've been all over that topic a couple weeks ago, with a lot of angry posts, but I stand by my experience of 3, 4, 5 hour attacks with no abatement in pain. Thats when you feel you will surely lose your mind, that there is no way you can hold out a minute longer, with one swollen eye on the clock, you just feel betrayed, but there not SUPPOSED to last this long. Somehow, you survive, and as you come out of it, your senses dulled, perhaps you emerge smarter, or stronger or more able to cope with any of life's adversities, This cant be as cruel a joke as it seems........Good luck tonite and hope the garlic works...........karen
