Just a thought ... has anyone ever seen a study on who gets bp ...

I know most on pc are female, figure that is because they are more likely to reach out for help and freer to share ...

But what about ethnic background ... or social ... developed vs undeveloped countries ... I realize dx will be lower there ...(no dr's) ... rich poor and on and on ....

My thought would be that stress would be an active trigger and that peoples that handle stress (or have less) would have less bp ...

I expressed this before I believe most (not all) mi are energized by stress ... not belittling brain chemicals at all just believe they get churning at a higher rate when stress is involved ...

Case in point "me" ... have been bp since childhood (i think) but never had a real issue until work stress pushed over the edge ... I know there are people with no stress history that are bp ...but I would like to see a study of how stress may contribute ...and if peoples with less stress in there lives have the same rates of bp as stress filled societies ...

I guess not so much as have bp but have it to the point it effects their lives ... so that they need help to function daily ...

I know we all have stress and it makes the bp road harder ... but I am looking more for a trigger

Just a thought ... would love to read any material on this if anyone has seen any ...

ps ; not trying to start an argument just curious ... jmo
