I have the same thought, it must be as it's accounted for in medical practice, but also how would I know? I only have my subjective experience to go by.

I think it is important to accept everyone's own experience of their pain though, I have no idea what someone else is feeling even if I have experienced the same event. Their experience and what they feel could be vastly different, our nervous systems behaving vastly different. It is not a morale failing to feel and be affected by pain.
