From mindbodymedicine.com (David Schechter, MD) here's a ten-item TMS Questionnaire. The questions help Dr. Schechter diagnose whether or not patients' symptoms are due to Tension Myoneural Syndrome (TMS) (sometimes called "Mind-Body Syndrome" or "Stress Illness").
What is TMS? Very simply: When there's no medical explanation for chronic pain or other related symptoms, emotional factors may be at root. Dr. Schechter's more detailed explanation is on his site.
