yes I believe stress was a factor. My work was always stressful and I was selling my house of 20 years and moving to a foreign country - although I was happy about that. I couldn't have been in better physical shape - I went to the gym a lot, walked a lot, I felt strong and healthy!!hahahha! and when my husband got very ill with Ankylosing Spondelitis, it was brought on by a number of stressful things happening all at once. so yes, I believe stress is a catalyst among other things. we all lead stressful lives anyway but......I think if you have several bad triggers happening at the same time.....bam! it reveals its ugly head.
