“…We did not include papers that did not meet our criteria for inclusion, and included an additional nine fibromyalgia studies. 324,327,335,351,352,366,373,377,381 Their synthesis supports important areas of our conceptual analysis, for example the 'conscious awareness' of the body in pain; the unrelenting nature of fibromyalgia; isolation and loneliness; the search for an diagnosis; the ambiguity of diagnosis and loss of legitimacy. It also supports concepts related to moving forward with pain, including listening to the body, accepting loses and re-evaluating life.…”

HS&DR programmeThe Health Services and Delivery Research (HS&DR) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was established to fund a broad range of research. It combines the strengths and contributions of two previous NIHR research programmes: the Health Services Research (HSR) programme and the Service Delivery and Organisation (SDO) programme, which were merged in January 2012.The HS&DR programme aims to produce rigorous and relevant evidence on the quality, access and organisation of health services including costs and outcomes, as well as research on implementation. The programme will enhance the strategic focus on research that matters to the NHS and is keen to support ambitious evaluative research to improve health services.For more information about the HS&DR programme please visit the website: www.netscc.ac.uk/hsdr/ This reportThe research reported in this issue of the journal was funded by the HS&DR programme or one of its proceeding programmes as project number 09/2001/09.

Our aim was to integrate qualitative research findings in order to increase our understanding of barriers to staying in work with chronic pain.Methods -We searched five electronic bibliographic databases until September 2012, supplemented by citation tracking and hand-searching. We used meta-ethnography to synthesis our findings. Central to metaethnography is identifying 'concepts' and developing a conceptual model. Concepts were compared and organised into categories.Results -The following categories can have an impact on the decision to remain in work: struggling to affirm myself as a good worker; balancing life and work in the face of unpredictable symptoms; my work colleagues don't believe me; the system does not facilitate return to work; the battle for legitimacy.Conclusions -Our innovation is to present an internationally relevant model based on a conceptual synthesis. This model highlights the adversarial work experience of people with chronic. The papers span fifteen years of qualitative research. A significant finding is that these themes continue to pervade the current work environment for those in pain, and this has clear implications for education, social care and policy. 2 IntroductionAround 25% of adults suffer with moderate or severe pain [1][2][3][4][5], and for 6-14 % of these the pain is severe and disabling [6, 7]. People in chronic pain are seven times more likely to give up their jobs, are more likely to r...

“…There must be some other reason I feel that, all these rigid things that you try and put in place to protect (28,29,32,34,39,70,73,89,93,94,103 yourself, quite often are actually a problem that you have in your mind rather 108,113,115) than your back. So I think your mind and your back are quite closely linked (93).…”
