Research shows that the immune system is involved in chronic pain. The immune system is involved in the process of inflammation. The investigators are still learning about the factors that cause inflammation, but know it can be measured in the blood. The purpose of this study is to understand how negative thoughts affect the immune system in women with chronic pain. A sub-study asks subjects to store a blood sample for future research by the PI aimed at identifying genetic markers in women with chronic pain.
