@Matt Someone once said to me ...If you wake up one day and nothing hurts, You're probably dead.

[Matt]

Yeah. That’ll be nice.

[TinMan]

@Jett129 hopefully I went to bed in 21oz

@Matt don’t get me started on my back.

@Matt said in Random Rants:

Now I’m in bed on 4 ibuprofen and an oxy left over from kidney stones.

That's how I knew I was officially getting older.
When I started saving leftover drugs from medical procedures to use for their intended purposes as opposed to youthful shenanigans

I got some catching up to do, how I have missed out on this thread! @WhiskeySandwich @GraemeE LMAO

[GraemeE]

Hopefully I'm not breaking the forum rules here but 22 year old me can offer this bit
of wisdom now that enough decades have passed

an oxy

sorry to hear @Matt but don't
and just an idea, did you have your blood checked on uric acid ?

[TinMan]

@matt Close friend started having a lot of joint pain in his feet. he started taking turmeric and says it has really helped him.

Don’t get old kids.

I don't want to get all litigious up in here, but it sounds like the Vet had something to do with it too.

Hope you find a way of mitigating the pain and getting back to your old (ha!) self soon.

Being just days away from 40 now, I've found that my take on physical fitness has changed drastically since my 20s. I used to be able to eat 5,000 calories per day and burn it off doing physical labor and a few hours worth of BMX/skateboarding. I was made of rubber and could easily power through any pain that bothered me, usually from abuse. These days that abuse is catching up to me. I have a torn L4-L5 disc and do physical therapy/yoga/calisthenics morning and night and lift when the pain allows. I've found that diet/intake is the majority of the battle when it comes to staying in shape, and the remainder is knowing when to exercise and when to rest/heal. I guess I'm a slow learner.

Try being 66 you wimps......:-)

[goosehd]

I’ve tried 69 a couple of times…

[Giles]

Did it hurt?

[goosehd]

@Giles …not really , but maybe I was doing it wrong.

[goosehd]

Come to think of it…there was some stiffness and swelling.

[Giles]

[WhiskeySandwich]

Man, by the time I'm that age I'll be in a chair... I twisted wrong getting out the car and had pain for a week. You do alright @Giles
