I know the feeling too. One thing I discovered on my own that helped the ankle tendonitis was riding a bicycle. If the doctor ok's it you might give it a try sometime.

Whoever came up with the term "Golden Years" was wrong. That's RUST!! I'll be 64 next b-day, and I've been a meat cutter for 46 of them. Hands are about shot. Uncle Arthur has set in both of them.

Hey , Since Christmas is to be joyous, the most wonderful time of the year and all, lets all try hard to ignore the physical pain that generates mental misery for a few days. I'm taking the grand daughters out for a day of ice skating and stuff. Practicing what I preach. No I don't feel like it but if not now/today, When?
Ours is the land of the over medicated and the homes of the still miserable today and everyday, but until the day after Christmas... SMILE DAMIT! Fake that outgoing smile and see if the returned smile doesn't make you feel better.
If God didn't love us we wouldn't be here. If I didn't care I wouldn't have typed this.
Merry Christmas

You tore your Achilles because you were mashing the gas pedal too hard. ;)
I wish that was true. My barracuda is waiting for a coat of paint and reassembly.

Ain't that the truth.
I spread the gospel of trying to prepare for the job to the youngsters among us, (and I'm relatively young compared to some in this thread) and hope it helps at least one looking forward to a body that doesn't give up or give out in his or her 40's and later.

sIt's not the age, it's the miles.
When the warranty is up, it's all down hill from there.
I'm 52, have two bad knees with a torn lateral meniscus in each and a progressively arthritic spine that hurts like hell and cracks and pop like an old oak tree in a windstorm.
BUT, I refuse to stop moving and I WILL keep on doing and moving for as long as I can. I once spent 6 weeks in a wheelchair and another 8 weeks with a walker followed by 16 weeks with a cane 9 years ago when I tore out both knees at the same time.
It taught me that there are always ways to keep moving and doing the things you need to do as long as you don't despair the circumstance.
Adapt and overcome to keep moving forward. All we get is what we have...and it's up to us to make the most of it.

My mom says getting old isn't for sissies.
Now I'm wondering why I switched my car to a 4 speed, oh because they are more fun.....LOL shake down miles cruising Woodward avenue and thinking, WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING.
I was being kidded a while back and I told them I have a lot of hard miles behind me. My cousin said its not the miles but the stops I made in between. He may have something there. A lot of the miles went by pretty quick!
