Medically unexplained symptoms (MUS): are they really 'all in my head’?
Some people experience persistent physical symptoms such as headaches or dizziness, but doctors can’t find any medical or physical conditions to explain them. This doesn't mean that the person is imagining them, nor does it mean they are 'all in their head', these symptoms are in fact very real and distressing for the person experiencing them. Dr Catherine Sykes, one of our top charted psychologists explains what causes them and how they can be treated.
