Hello.  Are you taking medication which you think may be the cause of your problems?  If so, try and have a chat with your doctor, and see what they suggest.  It could well be that the medication is causing your problems.

Let us know how you get on

Yes stress in itself can cause many problems such as you describe.  I myself have had many physical problems because of depression, and also some medications give us side effects.

Hope you had a chat with the doctor and he has put your mind at rest.
