[QUOTE="purplepoppy, post: 2274684, member: 336547"] Yes. I am convinced that stress is a factor in diabetes complications. I have been Type 2 for at least 20 years and I have several complications. In January I was called for a PIP assessment, even though I told them this would be an extremely stressful situation for me. They ignored this. My GP ignored my request for support. I had to go but was so stressed that I was unable to eat for five days prior. I cried all the way through the assessment and could not bring myself to look at the assessor (he said he was a paramedic!!!). However, his report said I engaged normally and had no problem talking to him. There were also several other lies. No wonder these sham assessments cause so much stress. Afterwards, I became very ill and I began to notice what I presume is nerve damage in my hands. I already have this in my feet. This has become worse and all started when I was under the most severe stress. [/QUOTE]
