    Aches and pains that you are prone to may be aggravated by stress. That is my humble opinion.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    I reckon so too. I often find I'm in more pain the day following a stressy time.

    Hello all,

    I think we can all agree that stress makes everything worse, including the pain of arthritis. Obviously stressful situations can't always be avoided, but here at Helpline Towers we usually find Taste the difference chocolate ginger biscuits* a good antidote.


    *other biscuits are available

    I know when I had my ESA medical It took me a couple of days to get over it and I swear most of it was down to stress...
