Stress as a Vital Sign

Stress is the eternal part of our life, there are two types Eustress and distress. Eustress is the positive stress which encourages us to work hard during exams, during difficult times. And distress is negative stress which makes us week and finally depressed.

Lets get to the Topic, when we go to Doctor for checkup, Our Doctor checks so called Vital Signs like Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, Sugar level, Temperature and so on. But he never checks for Our stress condition, which may be most important factor which affects stress.

And as I see the Literature there is no perfect device to measure stress. May be in the future lets wish that Scientists invent a Ideal Electronic device to measure stress so that Doctors can consider Stress as a Vital sign.
