I can honestly say I have seen it all but I have not seen that. Unless you are taking a certain med that causes arthritis?

I've been in the medical field for 20 years and have never heard of such a thing. But, I'm going to look into it.

If this turns out to be true medically speaking, the flood gates will open

Here's a link to an interesting study that brings up the connection:

http://psychservices.psychiatryonline.org/...t/full/53/7/848

"With all other variables in the equation controlled for, participants with PTSD were more than twice as likely as those without PTSD to report anemia, lung disease, or an ulcer; more than three times as likely to report kidney disease; and more than four times as likely to report arthritis."
