Back in January, in the episode of "Painless," House admitted to the patient that his pain was becoming unbearable and the vicadin was no longer sufficient. (House had been quite grumpy for a few weeks.) Several weeks later, instead of grimacing in pain every scene; House had somehow retained his sense of humour. It was soon revealed, in "The Softer Side," that House had started taking methadone, a legal heroin substitute. At the end of that episode, Cuddy offered him regular methadone treatments for his pain, which House refused, fearing continued cloudy judgement and the loss of his "gift." Since that time, House is supposedly no longer on the methadone.

Here's the question: Has anyone else noticed that House no longer seems to be in terrible pain?
