I count my blessings, hit 50 and no body issues whatsoever*, I'm just as active as I was as a teen. I know the warranty on my body parts are about to expire, so I stay lightly active every day, even joined a run club. But I won't do anything stupid like run a half-marathon. That's just asking for bad hips and joints, not gonna tempt fate there.
*except my eyes. Holy shiat I feel like I have the eyes of a 90 year old. One sees far away fine, but can't read anything closer than 2 feet to me. The other is blurry far away but can read things fine. But that eye also has what can only be described as giant translucent frosted flakes floating directly in my vision. Optometrist (girl looked 20) said they eventually settle from gravity, but nope lol

that's great, if you have not done so already, find a good pcp, start getting annual labs tests and get butt checked. if i had done so, could found out my parathyroids were going bad, probably not had to have 3 kidney stones removed and have bones weaker than my near 80 year old mom. also butt check found the things that have 3-10% of being cancerous in time.

Good advice! The 1st butt check was finally scheduled just now. It's not the butt stuff I'm scared of, instead, well I can't remember the last time I haven't eaten for 24 hours. I'm a prolific snacker and terrified

Went yesterday to Vegas for my 6 month oncology follow up. The drive/time/standing/walking had my back/feet on fire and kept me up all night. Slept through 3 alarms and didn't wake up until my wife got home today. This getting old shit is for the birds.
Thankfully , since I've passed all my checkups for the last 3 YEARS, my next visit is virtual (as long as the MRI is clean). I have medical proof I don't have any brains! No I mean that nothing is in my brain, shit that's not better.

Same, I turn 50 this year and still kicking it very active.
Father Time wins them all though, he is coming. Just need to outrun him for the time being.

Have my 2 1/2 year check up next month. Progress so good the docs recommended I get the medical port removed from my chest. Had that done Monday morning. Of course now I have a scar on my upper chest, which of course I'm going to tell everyone is from having a third nipple removed.
