Okay. So this guy whose wife was House's patient came to the hospital and shot House. He wanted revenge because when his wife was sick, he confessed to House that he had an affair. Her disease had nothing to do with the fact that her husband cheated on her (because she didn't have an STD) but he told her anyway that her husband cheated on her. She killed herself.
So the guy came and shot House. When he went in for surgery (because he was shot) Cuddy gave him ketamine, which induces a coma, instead of the usual anesthesia. She had read that in half of all chronic pain sufferers, it allowed the brain to "reboot" itself and eliminated all pain. Side effects were hallucinations (and that episode was all a hallucinaton, and he chose to have ketamine anyways) so for a while, he was without pain. He was jogging to work, walking without a cane, everything. But the pain eventually came back. This was all the beginning od season three.
