Hello @robert58 -- Welcome to Connect. Each of us is different when it comes to pain but I think you are correct. I have no medical training or background but have learned a person needs to be their own advocate and search for answers for what works for them. The more a person can educate themselves about their illness, the better questions they can ask their doctors and hopefully help them come up with a better treatment plan. With that said, there are a lot of people out there making money off of people in pain so that is another good reason to keep yourself informed.

For those not familiar with what you mentioned - Mayo's PRC treating Centralized Sensitization Syndrome, here are some links for more information:

Pain Rehabilitation Clinic (PRC) Testimonial - Mayo Clinic -- Patient Corey Plath explains about how chronic pain has impacted his life. Multiple concussions led to daily headaches then unimaginable pain. Corey found answers on how to handle this chronic pain when he visited Mayo Clinic's Pain Rehabilitation Clinic.
