Right now I’m going to the gym just to keep myself in the game. If I don’t go out and move my body and try to use resistance to help me, I feel I would start to slide backwards. My kidney numbers are getting worse so the visit to the kidney specialist next week is really being looked forward to cause I want answers…I feel as if I’m living on the edge of a razor blade right now…

A body in motions stays in motion a body at rest stays at rest. Maybe the doc will get you taped up and you will be back to your old self!

if you push yourself and go to the gym getting old isn't quite as bad as if you'd haven't...I feel beat up but a lot better than if I sat on my asss all day...

I am active and stretch, walk and work out. Not like you Boo but my doc says it combination of weak lower back muscles and arthritis. The more I work those muscles the more it is inflamed. i tried your belt trick for a month and no help. Nothing I do helps.

I used to get Pullet to do that to mine when she was little. She'd hold onto the couch for balance and side step down my spine from my hips to my neck. She'd freak when one of the bones would crack, but I told her it felt great. It did. I wish the acid reflux wouldn't take over or I'd try an inversion table again. Might have to make a medieval rack of some sorts and let the Old Hen torture me.

I went to rehab for 12 weeks on my doctor's referral. After 10, they had to do an evaluation before blue cross would pop for the last two weeks. They tested me, apologized and said they'd done me more harm than good, gave me a T shirt, and sent me down the trail. I truly tried my best. Screwed is screwed. Only thing that'll fix it is a grave blanket.

I am pretty sure it is arthritis. I didn't even think about that possibility until the Doc said that might be the problem. I always thought it was weak muscles.
Either way it is something I have learned to live with. My father (who I barely knew) had so many things wrong with him he finally said pull the plug at age 78. My grandfather died at 79 and dear old mom at 76.

Thinking that if there is anything on my bucket list to get done I better do it.....NOW! Doctors used to give them all the pain meds they needed.....I can't get an aspirin.

I truly believe the powers to be are conspiring to get rid ot the older generation. They don't like paying social security and the way we think.

They want us to suffer and die off so the new generation of LGBTQ can take over.

I saw this: https://us.amazon.com/ComforTrac-Lu...mzn1.fos.2b70bf2b-6730-4ccf-ab97-eb60747b8daf
 
That's me! Degrative disc disease, three herniated discs, and moderate-severe arthritis from my saddle to my sombrero. Toss in severe cervical and sciatic nerve damage for good measure. Hard work won't kill ya, but it'll make you wish you were dead.

Oxies and beer on an empty stomach is the only relief I can get, but my drug supply is finite, and I don't really like taking any kind of pharmaceuticals. Grin/wince and bear it, I guess.
 
There’s no doubt in my mind that my body is slowly failing after all the abuse and damage that I’ve done to it. I’ve lived a very good and full life, but due to the genetics that I’ve inherited from my family, there’s not much I can do to improve what I’ve already been doing. My diet, health style, and activity level are all far better than most folks my age so it’s just a matter of if there’s anything the doctor can do when I see him next week… I sure would like to regain the 30 pounds that I’ve lost in the last few months, I am not used to being a featherweight…
