I appreciate that this is a site for talking about those faking illness, however, we should never confuse chronic pain with faking. There are an handful of conditions that create debilitating lifelong pain, I myself live with a patient in such a condition, not to mention it is progressive, she now has complete lower limb paralysis, colostomy and urostomy, the disease has destroyed her bladder, one kidney, and she went through menopause at the age of 27 and permanent freezing of 3 fingers and one wrist. It would be said for people to treat such a brave individual who is suffering so much pain like a 'faker'.
