"Lasting pain is linked to anxiety and how much two brain regions talk about the injury"

I'm less interested in the anxiety link than the acceptance that our perception of pain depends on neural processing. "While we commonly think of pain as relating only to an injury, it is the brain that actually makes up the pain experience," Their study is about anxiety and memories of the injury, but ME's pain might arise from other misprocessing of signals.
