I don't mean to sound to vague, but all illnesses can become worse due to stress.
Stress can cause many symptoms to people who aren't sick as well.

Can't think of any illness that's not aggravated by stress. Anything that weakens an already weakened body is not good. You can either fight the stress or avoid it, so that the body can focus its efforts on healing. Best to avoid stress in whatever illness. If not, your choice is to fight stress perhaps by vitamins or other ways.

Any illness can be exacerbated by the addition of stressors, depending, of course, on the severity of the stressors. To date, however, no illness is known to be CAUSED by stress.
