Some of the moderators here may disagree with me but what does this have to do with anything related to this website? If you had asked about the physiologic response to stress interms of the cortisol response to combat and do soldiers ever develop a relative adrenal insufficiency....then you are asking the correct question....but to ask the generic question you did has no educational value for those here to gain insight on medical issues.
just my 2 cents...
