[A case of fibromyalgia treated with medical and autogenic training].

Fibromyalgia, which is relatively rare, may include symptoms of dizziness, vertigo and tinnitus. Subject was 38 years old woman reporting vertigo and whole body pain. Cochleovestibular function was normal. Pain was gradually intensified during her outpatient clinic and she was admitted. Treatments including intramusclular injection of botulinus toxin and intravenous injection of steroid were applied. Psychological counseling and autogenic training were effective in relieving her pain and vertigo. During her admission, several spells of vertigo occurred but no nystagmus was found. The abnormality in proprioception and neural disintegration may be related to vertigo. Treatment should start as early as possible together with psychological therapy.

Autogenic training as an effective treatment for reflex neurovascular dystrophy: a case report.

A 15-year-old girl complained of swelling and shooting pains in the right upper extremity, which had bothered her for seven months. Physical examination revealed swelling, cyanosis, weakness and hyperesthesia over the entire right upper extremity. Serological and biochemical data were within normal limits. She was diagnosed as having reflex neurovascular dystrophy (RND). Psychological problems with school and her family might have contributed to the pathogenesis of the disease. With autogenic training (AT), remission was obtained within eighteen months.

Responders and nonresponders to autogenic training and cognitive self-hypnosis: prediction of short- and long-term success in tension-type headache patients.

The present study was conducted to determine whether demographic variables, medical status variables, and psychological measures at pretreatment were related to pain reduction immediately following behavioral treatment for headache and at a 6-month follow-up. The study sample consisted of 156 subjects, who were selected for participation in a behavioral outcome study on the efficacy of autogenic training and cognitive self-hypnosis training. A Headache Index based on pain diaries constituted the main outcome measure. Psychological measures included the Symptom Checklist-90, Dutch Personality Questionnaire, Coping Strategy Questionnaire, Multidimensional Locus of Pain Control Questionnaire, and treatment expectations. Subjects who expected more pain reduction at pretreatment achieved a lower level of pain at posttreatment, independent of pretreatment pain levels. None of the other pretreatment variables were related with pain reduction at posttreatment or at the follow-up. Finally, at the 6-month follow-up, 43 subjects were classified as responders (more than 50% pain reduction) and 113 as nonresponders (less than 50% pain reduction and dropouts). At pretreatment, the responders perceived more pain control than the nonresponders. None of the other pretreatment differences between responders and nonresponders proved to be significant. The main conclusion that could be drawn from this study was that pain reduction, in the short- and long-term, cannot be predicted with any accuracy by demographic and medical status variables or scores for psychological distress, personality traits, coping strategy use, and pain appraisals.
