Since I started having liver problems and severe diarrhea several months back, most of my chronic pain has settled into my right abdomen. I still have it in my lower back. However, most of my shouder pain and upper back pains seem to have lessoned. I've heard stories that if you cause a major pain like smashing a fist or something, that your brain will focus on that pain instead of the more chronic stuff. I think I prefer it to be more spread out around my body instead of being focused in abdomen. It hurts like heck almost to the double over point.

Is it possible for your brain to rewire itself temporarily in this way? If so, how long does the rewiring last for? I'm having my abdominal issues checked into with a colonoscopy and liver ultrasound. Am also having other organs investigated like ovaries. If we can't find any other cause for this abdominal pain, am I doomed to living with abdominal pain instead of the tos pain and lower back pain I'm used to????

Any ideas?

Thanks
