Psychosomatic

Different doctors mean different things with the word psychosomatic. As does the public. It's not supposed to be that way with doctors, unfortunately, but it happens. Doctors are people, people are fallible. Fallible people will use wrong definitions. Psychosomatic is not supposed to mean the pain is "fake," just that there is no known origin or a possible psychological apparent origin exclusively. Which definition a doctor uses, depends on the doctor. Some will use the correct definition and mean that the pain is real.E.g. effectuating both psychic and somatic properties.
Alternatively diseases that are starting in the psyche but influencing the body. E.g. A post-nightmare lethargy.
