It not all in your head!!

Stress does link to inflammation which we have previously seen has a role in BC.

I would agree that stress is a potential significant aggravating cause, but not more.

"Inflammation is frequently present in the visceral fat and vasculature in certain patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and/or adult onset Diabetes Mellitus Type II (NIDDM). An hypothesis is presented which argues that repeated acute or chronic psychologically stressful states may cause this inflammatory process."
