Intensive interdisciplinary treatment for a patient with coexisting pain and obesity: A case study.

Chronic pain and obesity are topics of increasing concern. When both diagnoses are present in the same patient, treatment can be complicated. This is a retrospective case-study looking at outcomes across the continuum of care for a patient with Grade III Obesity and chronic widespread pain. The patient completed a Pain Rehabilitation Center program. Progression was realised by following a deliberate, daily regimen, allowing for consistent activity despite the presence of significant physical symptoms and emotional distress.
