Also I'd love feedback from anyone on this post about PTSD and it's relationship to CS. Over a period of 18 months prior to the onset of symptoms, I had life-changing events that were not of the good kind. I nearly died from twisted intestines and it was MAJOR emergency surgery. Subsequently, I had 4 other extremely traumatic events that elevated my stress level no doubt for an additional 18 months, on top of a high level exec job in NYC. I've read some links between elevated cortosol levels over a long period and that can lead to "re-wiring" of your neurology so that this stress state becomes the learned response constantly. Then my symptoms started. Anyone have info on this condition being tied to trauma? Thanks all.
