Hello everyone who may be suffering from multiple pain symptoms, sensory issues, lack of relief from medications, injections, implants, etc... I would like to resurrect this 2018 - 2020 discussion on Central Sensitization Syndrome (CSS).

Past and present members have provided their valuable experiences as well @colleenyoung posting helpful links with added factual information. Scrolling back through the discussion may be beneficial for some to gain clarity on how CSS is an umbrella to many disorders, diseases and unknowns.

As I have lived with CSS since childhood, but not fully understood it until the past couple of years, I find it extremely important to bring to light the full spectrum of it's course. So many folks are frustrated and grasping at straws. Many doctors simply do not understand or recognize CSS. As a patient we go to all of the specialists we can find...to diagnose us, help us, cure us.

At some point it becomes more about calming the forest fire, that is CSS, and all that it encompasses. The fire may never die down completely, but cutting off some fuel lines that feed it, is a great place to start.

My sincere purpose is to help educate, and bring hope and clarity to anyone struggling.
