Problems of ill health causing stress: prostate, ‘flu PROBLEMS OF ILL HEALTH CAUSING STRESS: PROSTATE, ‘FLU
Prostate
“What can I do to cope with it? The boss is driving me mad. As soon as I get there in the morning. On my back. The whole time. "Do this, do that." What's wrong here? Things that are not my fault. He can't see it. If I were to argue with him, I would be out. He sacked the last two in my job. I don't want that.
'I'm not as young as I was. Have to get up at night. Sometimes three or four times. Then can't get to sleep again. What can I do?”
The problem of his physical health compounds the problem at work. If his prostate troubles were relieved, he would be able to cope better with the rush of disturbing impulses from his work.
'Flu
“Things have never been all that good between us. Worse the last two months. I remember this because that's the time I got the 'flu. Was pretty sick with it for a few days. Now things go wrong more easily. As he comes in I can tell if he has had a bad day. Used to be able to coast things along. But now I don't seem to have the patience. It is as if I don't care, but I do. It all goes wrong so quickly. I put my foot in it, and soon we are bickering.”
An attack of 'flu, or, for that matter, any virus infection, often leaves us predisposed to stress. There are two factors, either of which may make things difficult for us. There is the general debilitating effect of the infection, which results in messages being sent to our brain that things are not quite right. And in some cases there is the direct effect of the virus on the nerve cells of our brain. This impairs their function, so that messages arriving at our brain are not as well integrated as they could be.
It is important for us to remember that the after-effects of a virus infection, not always, but sometimes, may linger on for some time afterwards.
