You're very welcome I'm glad the link was helpful . To be honest most doctors don't understand central pain sensitization or take the time to learn about it. Mostly I have found that doctors stay in their Lane and prescribe for what their specialty is without thinking outside of the box. Mayo Clinic has a pain Rehabilitation Center:

Also you might want to check out this video by Dr Christopher Sletten of the Jacksonville Florida Mayo Clinic PRC:

He breaks down Central sensitization syndrome and offers not only the science behind it but helps bring validation to some of the unexplainable.

I hope you find this helpful, too. Will you let me know if the video resonates with you? What are your next steps in management of your symptoms?

It’s late, but I’ll watch it tomorrow and respond. My dad has Conversion Disorder, so I am somewhat familiar with Functional disorders.
