The mind can be a powerful instrument indeed.
Lol, yeh I would have been pissed off as well lol. But the patients talking in the documentary werent bc they no longer had any pain BUT they still needed the operation and received it later on.. it was a research project to find out about the placebo-effect. So faith and positive thoughts can actually become reality. Just like how you didnt grew in height bc you were resistant in beeing the oldest biggest at home..
Very interesting story btw
