PDQ 8 index was 38 points. There was mild anxiety in HADS\-A and moderate, strong depressive symptoms in HADS\-D, Hamilton and BDI. No statistical relation between groups outside latency of lower extremities waves. Latency prolongation differences of SEP wave\: N21\- musculoskeletal pain, P37\- central, P31\- neuropathic.
