When you get up at a restaurant and it takes you 2 minutes to start moving and 25 steps to straighten up!4

It all started at about 35 years of age. I wondered what was wrong. Why do I feel pain? Why is it reoccurring? I panicked and thought there was something definitely wrong with me. As the years went by, I realized that this mysterious pain in various places in my body wasn't going to go away. After much money spent, and many doctor visits, I realized that all I needed to do was accept this horrible condition called getting old. You know you are getting older when you go to bed feeling great and wake up with a painful injury from sleeping. Ha! Now I just ignore the pain and accept
it as normal. GETTING OLD IS NOT FOR SISSIES!!!!2 -

I woke up with a pain in my side and I'm convinced it's pancreatitis or liver failure.
Yep, this is how I'm going out.
Old people probs.
What exactly are you calling "old". There's an MFP group called "The middle agers group. (Upper 30s,40s & 50ish folks)". If you're still inside that range, please don't call yourself old.
But yes, I do get some aches and pains, and don't have the strength and endurance of a teenager or twenty-something year old anymore.
Also, lots of illnesses these days seem no longer age-specific. Young people suffering from ailments that previously appeared to be only in the very old.0 -
I don't know (or care) about all the cool kid apps people are using.1

Being old means knowing who I am, doing what I love, and telling the ignorant where they can stuff it.7

I can’t stay out past 9 pm. And forget about going out AT 9.0

I've been dealing with elderly health issues since getting Chronic Fatigue Syndrome {CFS}, when I was 14 years old! Since some healthy people my age {38 years old} take naps, I wonder how many of mine're currently due to CFS or age and/or a combination, of both! Luckily I don't have Fibromyalgia as many with CFS also've & I don't have to take any prescription medications regularly, even though I've had 2 heart attacks {when I was 4 & 5 years old, due to my Mother attempting to kill me & then the hospital both neglecting my hypoglycemia} but I do get Angina approximately weekly to monthly, since I was 22 years old!
However though since September 16th after a fall while walking home, injuries that cause especially my lower legs to bleed {even if it's just a nick via shaving}, the wound area stays pink indefinitely!0 -

Ya so you go to sleep, which, by the way, i always believed to be a no contact sport, but awaken crippled with some bizarre stiff neck syndrome for days. WTH? Happening right now. Rant over.3

I know this, except I reached to turn off the CPAP machine and KINK! How the hell do you hurt your neck and shoulder extending your arm?0

I really am old - 63, and in addition to being overweight, I have fibromyalgia, depression and arthritic knees. They pop and grind, and I have been told I will likely have to have them replaced in a bit. It makes exercising so difficult, because I have always loved to walk. In addition to my physical stuff, I get fibro fog, which means I lose words, my train of thought, my ability to spell. But one thing I like about getting older, is I have become more compassionate, kinder and I worry less. But in 2014-2015 I went into a depression, and then had a year of fibro flares and just basically gave up on myself. I gained a lot of weight, but I am determined to make a lifestyle change and to get healthy again. I had a heart cath a month ago, and while I am okay, it was a wake up call when the Dr. put me on additional blood pressure medicine and a statin.6

I started getting arthritis-like symptoms. Luckily switching to a low carb diet has made them go away.
The one problem that won't go away is me thinking "these kids don't know how good they've got it. Back in my day we had to boot computers with a floppy disk"2 -
