Cronic pain
I’ve had continuous (24×7) pain for about 8 years.
Pain is deep, non-focal and present simultaneously in the front (upper abdomen/lower chest), both flanks, and upper–mid back.
MRI findings are non-explanatory.
NSAIDs, muscle relaxants, and pregabalin have given zero relief.
Because of this, my studies and daily functioning have been on hold for years.
I’m not looking for a diagnosis.
I want to know if others here have had long-standing, MRI-negative, constant pain like this,

Next Steps

Lots of people have this unfortunately.
Pain is a complex symptom with 3 components
*Sensory
*Affective
*Cognitive
The fact your symptoms are going on for so long with no changes on scans is reassuring and would strongly suggest Affective+Cognitive reasons.
Please consult a Clinical Psychologist.
All the best.
