Hi nanamommy,
Welcome to NeuroTalk!
If you follow the link that Darlene left you will find others who have had a positive experience with their pain pumps.
I'm not sure exactly what psychosocial dysfunction means in your case, but it's perhaps related to the many years of pain that you have experienced and the impact that pain has had on your daily functioning.
take care.
