We're all getting old!

[93LXHORSE]

Damn.... all these ailments and issues creeping up with us.. Diverticulitus, knee injuries, stroke....

I'll be 50 in May and I'm starting to look after my upkeep more and more as I realize that I'd like my body to last but things are bound to happen as we creep into middle age!

Post up your overall general health with respect to age!

Pretty healthy overall. My allergies have gotten worse, but that may just be a central texas thing.

Ive gained a little weight from 2 years ago, about 197 now...probably 13% body fat.

No major ailments, and i hope to keep it that way. I drink less than before, and my consumption continues to drop. Especially now that hangovers last longer.

Heavy weights have taken a toll on me, so i stick to slightly lower weight and higher reps.

Stroke yesterday, lying in Neuro unit hospital bed.
Bp- 106/65
Total cholesterol- 141
Resting heart rate- 65
No diabetes
Only thing I can figure is related to occasional migraines and a shit ton of stress/anxiety.
Will be speaking with Neurologist shortly to get more details.

27 here

Run 2 miles every morning and try to get in a light workout. Generally eat healthy and don't drink much these days. I am 6'4" and weigh 167 pounds.

Had some health issues in the past and those served as a huge wake up call. Last thing I want is another hospital stay or visit (I keep a copy of my EKG from 2008 in my office to remind me of how much that sucked). Also have a printout of my labs that show my troponin-I level at 6.78 (which means your ticker is having a tough time).

Borderline high blood pressure, but no other issues so far.
I drink way too much.
I quit smoking August 1st. I was only smoking a pack every two weeks or so, but I feel better about it now. And honestly, I've had 6 or 8 cigs total since Aug, just to remind myself why I quit.

I know I need to lose weight and cut back on the booze, and I will. Slowly.

I work out 2hours a day 3 days a week
Drink enough every night to kill the average person. I'm in the process of trying to slow down but man is it hard. Luckily drinking is my only vice. I'm too scared to try anything else in fear that I'll get hooked.

Came through years of pretty riotous harmful living but am really in great health and weight. Take a mild blood pressure pill every day and it's working fine. Cholesterol is fine and I am 5 foot 5 and 172... Feel great but was in the ER on New Years Day with diverticulitis and an scheduled for a gastro doc on Monday.

BP is good, but I don't exercise enough and I could probably cut down on drinking (about 4-6/wk)

Jesus Eric! Watch that shit, bud!

I'll be 39 on Monday, BP hovers around normal, cholesterol is higher than giraffe pussy - according to my doc, heart rate is the same, constantly stressed with school, work, etc., blood sugar is good, testosterone is low, but in the words of a buddy "you're only as old as your dick is" and mine still works on command.

Been getting back in the gym, trying to tighten up diet, etc.

I'm still flexible and feel good, so I'll claim 28.

Ive already had knee surgury that was likely several injuries from my youth's scarring. They cleaned out the scar tissue and Ive been good since. Had to have my gallbladder out last year, and need to have some carpal tunnel surgury, along with my wisdom teeth pulled.

It sure has been interesting being on this board with a good number of 'regulars' to grow up with. We've gone from chats about last night in mexico and upgrades to the hotrod to people geeting married, divorced, kids, etc.

To put it in perspective, I am drinking 4-5 large and strong Crown and Cokes 5-6 nights per week, at home. It's the equivalent of about 8-10 drinks at a bar. A handle of Crown will last me about 3 nights. I'm not passing out drunk, getting sick, or waking up with hangovers, but I think that's just because of my tolerance. It's also not causing me any problems with home or work, but I figure my insides are getting pickled.

That's a lot of alcohol over time.

I am diabetic which falls right in line with my family history. Cholesterol is up and down from year to year. I think I have plantar fasciitis, a weak lower back and need my wisdom teeth pulled.

I go through a 750ml a night. Don't pass out, get sick or have hangovers.

I also fear my insides are dying.
