Thanks for your help.

What kind of pain or symptoms are you having?
Do you agree with that diagnosis?

basic info on your diagnosis-
[Introduction: Undifferentiated Somatoform disorder

A condition where a person suffers from persistent physical complaints that are not due to a medical condition or are more severe than an existing medical condition is likely to cause. The physical complaint must exist for at least six month. The physical symptoms tend to occur or become worse when the person is under stress. Depression, stress and various psychological reasons are thought to be possible causes. Often, the symptoms interfere with a person's ability to carry out day-to-day functions. Common physical symptoms include pain, fatigue and gastrointestinal problems. Also called somatization syndrome. ]

What types of medical tests did you go through for your doctors to reach this conclusion?

I don't have this disorder, but my condition in days of old used to be referred to as hysteria and a type of conversion disorder aka somatization....

I have Sjogren's Syndrome and Fibromyalgia and I'm pain meds for nerve pain so I don't think I'm "thinking up the pain", it is for real, but when I get stressed it does get worse and I do have problems doing day-to-day functions...I spend a lot of time lying in and out of bed to calm my body down so I can continue throughout my day. The pain isn't so bad while I'm riding in a car it's the moving around, getting in and out and up and down and walking, bending, lifting, just moving. And I think it can be contributed to my small nerves, I also have burning pain. I've also been diagnosed with Schiezoaffective Disorder & Cognitive Disorder - Subtle, so you tell me. Thanks for your help. Beenthere
