So glad to read the above. I had heard a long time ago that RA was

caused by

a dormant virus we all have in our systems that is brought about by some

stressful situation in our lives. That's what happened to me!!! 6 months

before

being diagnosed in 1981 there were three stressful events in my life

starting out

with my mother's death. Does anybody else have a similar story?
