BP and Physical Illness

Hi everyone,

Hope that all is well. I decided to start this thread as recently I have caught some sort of infection that has my throat sore, ear aching, head aching, fevers etc. However today I noticed, that while I am physically sick, most of my BP symptoms tend to scale back significantly, which I find intriguing. I was wondering if anyone else had similar experiences and noticed a correlation between the two.

Thanking you for your responses,

Depends which symptoms are screaming the loudest I would guess.

I live with chronic daily pain and sickness. When I am manic, I still have pain but it's much reduced from normal. When I'm stable I have pain but it doesn't mentally rip me up. I can cope, though it is hard.... When I'm depressed I feel that life isn't worth living because of this chronic pain and it really brings me low and I feel the pain more intensely. It's another big component in my illness actually. I think it's why I especially enjoy mania, even if I'm paranoid and anxious....it still feels better than usual somehow.
