Migraine is often comorbid with chronic pain.[Hagen et al., 2002; Peterlin et al., 2010; Woldeamanuel et al., 2017] Indeed, migraine and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) are thought to share some pathology and clinical characteristics.[Woldeamanuel et al., 2017] In one study, the coexistence of migraine and CRPS was associated with poorer clinical outcomes, and greater psychiatric comorbidity, than migraine alone.[Woldeamanuel et al., 2017]
