Guest guest Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 What bothers me about RA being "caused" by stress is that then some can, and will, say, it is all in your head. We know it isn't all in our heads. But this could conceivably cause insurance problems. I am not downplaying the part that stress plays in Ra and other auto-immune diseases. But rather than being "caused" by stress, I believe it can be "triggered" by stress. But the underlying cause was already there; whether trauma, virus, genetic pre-disposition or something else.
