Accepted Answer

Lasonya Hill, 32, has reported experiencing pain, as well as gastrointestinal, sexual, and pseudo-neurological sensations that are not better described by a recognized medical illness. Based on her symptoms, Somatization Disorder would be my initial diagnosis.A diagnosis of Somatization Disorder is made when a person places a great deal of emphasis on bodily symptoms like pain, fatigue, or shortness of breath to the point where it causes them great suffering and/or functional difficulties. The person overreacts to the physical symptoms in their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.Elements known to increase the risk of SSD are the presence of anxiety or sadness, a history of traumatic events, violence, or sexual abuse; a medical condition; or being treated for a medical condition.As a result, we can say that Lasonya Hill has claimed to experience bodily aches, as well as gastrointestinal, sexual, and pseudo-neurological sensations that are not better accounted for by a recognized medical condition. Based on her symptoms, somatization disorder would be my first suggested diagnosis.LEARN MORE ABOUT SOMATIZATION DISORDER HERE: https://brainly.com/question/28240605#SPJ1
