Somatoform: disorder means any symptoms are possible! The "trick" is to be able to "separate" the symptoms form the emotional problem from symptoms due to disease! Good Luck Hope this helps! Dr Z

Yes: Somatoform Disorder is defined as a person's emotional state or emotional conflicts being manifest in physical symptoms. Therefore, anything physical including the symptoms you mention could be a result of this problem. The best way to be sure is to consult with your primary care physician.
