Default Did you feel better after you retired?

I ask this with hopeful expectation.

I have had a couple people with other chronic illnesses (RA & Lupus) tell me that they felt physically better after retirement, no doubt due to less stress, less fatigue, less everything.

I fully expect to go through the stages of loss (already getting a head start) but I'm wondering about the experiences of you who are already retired due to medical limitations.

I'm really, really hoping that after I get done work (*sob*) I'll have more energy and less anxiety and all. Tell me your stories, good and bad. Were you "better" after you retired?
