Hi

There is no direct impact of your occupation on any of these diseases.

But many of these are directly related to STRESS,

STRESS is the common aggrevating factor in causing these disease.

Are you smoker?

Were there any polluted / fumes at site of your profession?

Thanks

No I am not a smoker.
I started as an Embalmer before any OSHA regs were in place, we had no monitoring of air quality. As far as exposure to chemicals I would have to say that it was extreme, formaldehyde, phenoal, benzene, and various others related to Embalming. The stress level was minor, I have always tried to avoid stress.
Thank you;

Hi

Most important relation in these disease are thatthey all are AUTO IMMUNE DISORDERS.,

Myasthenia Gravis , Diabetes Type I , Multiple Sclerosis , Systemic Sclerosis ,brain lesions ,some types of kidney disorders all are AUTO IMMUNE DISORDERS.,

Autoimmune disorders are conditions caused by an immune response against the body's own tissues.
