Question:
if anyone can or has information on chronic pain syndrome, please, i
have looked in the dictionary etc, ther is nothing there. Of course
there is lots on chronic pain BUT NOT chronic pain syndrome,
I need this info, its stressing me out and panic attacks all over
again,
Answer:
In general, chronic pain syndrome refers to a medically perceived
dissociation between nociceptive pain and pain behavior. Chronic pain
syndrome therefore is chronic pain behaviour without an identifiable cause,
but is accompanied by pathologic guarding, psychologic disturbances,
dependence, somatization, etc. I too believe it is a garbage term for failed
medical diagnosis
