stress related physical symptoms/psychosomatic stuff

[Stellata]

I suffer from what's known as 'vasomotor rhinitis' which is getting a blocked nose from stress related, as well as other, causes.

It's been really bad the past 24 hours or so, but now's lifted since a phone call at work about work related stuff that was causing the stress, took away a lot of the stress. Now I can breathe properly through my nose again! I find it kind of astounding that such sudden improvement can come from a psychosomatic based symptom like that!

Anyone else get stress related physical symptoms that come and go like this?

I get what is most politely described as "stress gut."

I get colds and other respiratory infections when I get stressed. Last time I had one is when I was kicked off my uncle's property. I had pneumonia after a confrontation with my sister in law.

I get hives on my hands when I'm stressed if that counts. They're ugly and horrible and itchy but they ease off when I start to de-stress and end up completely gone again
