I sympathize and relate greatly Candy as its 18 years and heading downhill for these bones. I do see that anxiety or any very brief stress can give me a nerve zinger anywhere and makes my general pain level worse. However I see no possible way that serious pain could invent itself solely by any emotion really. I know it helps to stay positive but that is sooo difficult when the pain isolates one. My best friend died a few years ago who used to hang out with me no matter how bad I was. Very hard to find a good friend when oneself is so down and in pain. I wish you and all to attract a "best" friend as friendships help greatly. Best nevet
