Guest guest Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 In regards to the link between stress and RA, I fully concur! When I went to India in May, 2003 to adopt my daughter, I had no symptoms of RA. The trip was stressful and I got very ill while over there. My daughter was 2 1/2 yrs. old and the trip home and first several months were very difficult for her and us. By November, I had my RA. So, I've always felt that the stress of that adoption or my illness over there had something that " jump started " my RA. Our 1st adoption, again from India, in 1999 was much less stressful, not to mention I was younger, LOL. Take care all, Tammy _________________________________________________________________ Get thousands of games on your PC, your mobile phone, and the web with Windows®. http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/108588800/direct/01/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Tammy, I wanted to write and say how much I admire you parents that have chosen to adopt. What a blessing you are to this world and the children that you take to be your own. God bless you, Sweetie. Shirley > > > > > > > In regards to the link between stress and RA, I fully concur!
