I think that the dream pain was based on real pain that happened while you were dreaming. It is possible to be conscious of our sleeping enviornment during a dream and for the dream to be influenced by this conciousness. The fact we are more conscious of our sleeping enviornment while we are awake than in a dream explains why the pain was more severe upon awakening. Real pain would also explain why the pain has persisted so long. What the real pain was caused by, I'm not sure. Maybe your arm was fixed in an awkward position while you were dreaming. |
