I agree, B2Y. Everyone has to weigh the benefits of being without pain against the benefits of having more energy. If more energy means you're only going to notice your pain more then it's not worth it. Sometimes sleep is the body's way of healing (or trying to heal) itself and we should listen to it and not push ourselves.
