Stress

[Guest guest]

i really think so because ever since i moved to PR to become less stressed (in fact i am more stressed than EVER), all my medical conditions have become steadily worse. plus the doctors here are very slow paced and take an extremely long time to see their patients. LITERALLY. i don't like it here at all and as soon as i am healthy enough i am moving. when you are independent from the age of 21 to 33 and then have to move with yr parents, deal with a child who has ADHD, and am sick most of the time, it's alot to deal with.

so i def agree that stress is a MAJOR factor in all diseases.

Dear Christy, and Group,

We have a poll question on the group site about stress. So far 45

members responded:

********* # of Votes %

Yes, stress always contributes to EN flare-ups 9 20%

Yes, most of the time 17 37%

about 50-50 10 22.22%

No, stress usually doesn't contrubute to EN flare-ups 2 4.44%

No, stress never conributed to EN flare-ups 0 0.00%

I don't know if stress contributed to my EN flare up. 7 15.56%

So as you can see well over half of us think stress is related to EN.

If you'd like to vote, just go to the Group site:

and log on with your Yahoo ID and secret password

Then go to Polls and there are about 12 different ones you can vote

on. It's annonymous, so no one knows how you voted--but you can only

vote once :-)

Love,
