well I have given up a long time on ever finding a reason for this and I refuse to let more dr. poke me or mess me around and look disbelieving as if I am perplexing them on purpose just to annoy them. They do that enough for my allergies.

So I have no diagnosis for the pain but one dr. believed enough in me to give me a prescription for good painkillers years ago and I keep using those, by...

Mosken,

Chronic pain may develop for no apparent reason. Despite repeated examinations and tests, your doctor may not be able to link it to an identifiable physical cause or condition. This doesn't mean that the pain doesn't exist....
