It's very interesting to me that the trajectory of my injury is a lot different than that of most experiences I've read about on the web. The large majority of them were/are like yours -- significant but not horrible pain right away, then escalating pain the next couple of days, and then a very long recovery period of 8-12 weeks.
Mine was very different though: very very severe pain at the moment of incident, a lot of pain the next few days, but a relatively fast recovery period. At 3.5 weeks I fought, and at this point (4.5 weeks) it is still painful if I sneeze but any other day-to-day activity is fine, and I am starting to return to training.
