Haha quirks....I have many but they all seem normal cause it's things I just do
The sports I do are somewhat quirky. I'm very competitive yet somehow unambitious. Get my brother and me together and it's like we're performing. Lotsa quirks but to me it just makes life fun2 -

You Spring when others have Autumn (or Fall in America). I have Summer all year round.1 -
And autumn has well and truly started here. Cold, grey and drizzly rain. Meh. The trees are pretty though.
I found out yesterday that I have high blood pressure. I kinda felt hard done by, as I'm living relatively healthy and I'm not overweight (even when I started back here I was at a BMI 26), so it's "not fair". Ordered myself a blood pressure monitor so I can keep track of it for a month or so. If it stays high I have to come back and get bloods done.1 -

Yikes look after that.
I totally know what rotator cuff issues are like and luckily as of a year ago it's a thing of the past0 -

Ali, the orthopedic specialist I saw ran a battery of tests and concluded the joint was too strong to warrant surgery. Sent me to do PT and although it has gotten better I believe in my core that there is something in there that isn't right.2 -

You should push to get it checked more
Mine was sore for years and started giving out as I was doing push ups so I decided it was time to take action. I was sent to physio, 6 months later with no improvement I was sent for an ultrasound. I had to convince people it wasn't right because I had no tradition issues other than some pain. My range of motion was completely within the normal range even up to having surgery. The ultrasound showed a significant tear. I was sent for more physio and to see a sports dr. I tried the cortisone shot which did nothing and then got an MRI showing it was hanging on by a thread but I had good muscle tone which was why I could still function. When I had the surgery it was completely torn. I recovered pretty quickly cause I'm odd and heal quickly and now about a year out I have full range of normal motion and no pain!
TL:dr you know your body best. If you think there's more the push for help0 -

Haha. I have several times been asked if I'm a university student. Being active is the fountain of youth. Oh and before my surgery I was told I'm young so a good candidate. I was like can you write that down So i can share it hahaha3 -

I know how you feel. Checking every morning and I'm convinced my monitor is malfunctioning. Usually get a better reading when I check again 5 minutes later.1 -

Hi. Feel free to add me as a friend anyone. Just be warned some days my diary isn't perfect.. Like today1 -
Hi all! I'm a former user of this site (this is a new account I deleted my old one in a fit of stupidity), come back after a year+ long absence that resulted in me gaining back the 40ish pounds I lost and a few extra for good measure.
I'm a 41 year old night shift worker in a grocery store so I don't really get to socialize much beyond coworkers and my household. So it's really nice to find a group of people in my age range with a common-ish goal! I look forward to getting to know you all!3 -
Morning everyone! Welcome (back) Cassandra and MissLithium, hope it'll go well for you.
Now first, coffee... Busy day ahead of me by the looks of it.2
