I'm 65 and have been amazingly healthy my entire life. Rarely sick, I don't have a bad

But it's not as bad as it sounds. The blood pressure took a few tries but we got the right meds, as I mentioned in the other thread stage 2 prostate cancer has a survival rate of like 98%. As for my blood sugar I learned when you get cancer you tend to go "what the Hell why don't I get that Hagen Daz?" while at the store. We never had ice cream or donuts in the house until recently. I ate like crap the last few months, I can change that.

Hey man sorry to hear about the cancer but I'm sending positive vibes - 98% survival rate sounds great. Hope it's a big nothing burger.
I haven't been as fortunate - 35 and in the last 5 years I've broken my wrist, 2 herniated discs in my back that had to have surgery for. Getting old sucks indeed lol. Just had the flu and it took me 3 weeks to feel normal again. It used to be a 1 week deal. Is what it is though.
