It can happen whether you have depression or not. Or stress (from depression or whatever other source such as lack of sleep, underlying illness, gut issues, food issues, emotional issues, high blood sugar, etc) can cause or exacerbate the fatigue and pain.Sometimes there already is some underlying immune/autoimmune/inflammatory process going on.
It is very complicated, isn't it?
I guess the idea is to treat everything we can and be as healthy as we can be. Otherwise we may find ourselves in a vicious cycle of pain, fatigue, depression and inflammation.
