A member asked:
I was wondering, do chronic stress and overwork lead to strokes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : If it did, each of our presidents would die of stroke in office. Bill gates would be a goner. All of our us military would be in wheelchairs. Air traffic controllers would be in continuous rehabilitation. Small business owners would die at 50. Last, but not least, doctors would never go into medicine!
