Answer 1

The correct answer is somatic symptom disorder.
This refers to a disorder when you feel discomfort or pain, however, there is no explanation for it given that the scans show no problems with your body. It may seem that it is all in your head because you will keep going to doctor trying to find a cure for something that ultimately doesn't exist.
