Hans, sorry I guess I didn't explain myself properly...I don't think that
stress "caused" my PD....but I think stress was the "trigger" to cause PD to
begin when it did rather than say 10 or 20 yrs later when I was older.  I do
believe that I was set "genetically" to have PD at some point in my
life....."if" the right "trigger" came along!!
