When peeps think of stress, they think, the mental kind, but there is always the "assult on your body" type stress. Great Stress of any kind is almost a guarantee of a MS exacerbation.

I don't have the usual RRMS flares anymore, but last Nov. a fall sent me to the hospital, not due to the injuries but, by the exacerbation caused by the injuries/assults on my body. An operation can be such an assult.
