Seems like I hear that more and more now.

Your prostate is normal size, for someone your age.

Your eyes and cataracts are normal, for someone your age.

Your knees are normal, for......

Damn, I remember when I never had a doctor! Been bouncing from one doctor to another the last 2 months. Started with a colonoscopy, which I haven't had for 8 years. Then hearing aids then eye exam then urologist, then......you get the picture.

I know what you mean

Had a foot problem and went to the doctor, I was relieved when he said it would take two months to heal but at least I didn't have arthritis, he was talking about bone spurs and bunions and what not - a laundry list of old man feet I guess

I’m 65 and starting to hear that more often. As recently as yesterday.

To make matters worse, I have terrible white coat anxiety! My son is in medical school too!

Just how often are you going for that prostate test? More than once a week is overkill.

I am 69 Hank and that's when tye wheels started to come off and things went sideways.

That ain't so bad - for someone your age.

Dad will be 70 and is starting to realize he isn't 40 anymore.

Bellyaching about doc appointments for something every month for he or my step mother.

Won't take meds if prescribed or do what docs say then wonder why ot takes longer to heal.

Climbing trees is not a good idea for…

That wasn’t a proper response for…

Moving that fast uphill is probably not good for…

Bahahaha. I needed that laugh!

I bet a lot of that is going around during Pride month

I'm 55 and just getting to that point. I can tell you for sure that what a doctor means by that is that you are about average. Personally, I think average has been setting the bar lower and lower over the years, in US culture.

There are also outliers who are way above average. My main concerns are learning why and implementing as much of that as possible.

55? Your still a baby.

I’d like to be 69 again and know what I know now.

Needed those heating aids a long damn time ago

sound like we're all at the point where we have an upstairs and downstairs ibuprofen

Boomers!

Sheesh!!

Plus in the truck..

If you saw my MD you'd change your opinion. She has long slender fingers... 😛

You ain't see nothing yet.Wait until you hit 80.

I’m in good shape for the shape I’m in.

As someone my age, I can sneeze and pee at the same time.

I'm 82, if I wake up alive in the morning I figure I'm already a winner

Something or other hurts most of the time, just gotta grin and bear it.

At 73, if it doesn't hurt....it doesn't work

@ 57, I'm starting to resemble, that remark !

Getting old ain’t for pu$$ies.

Getting Old ain't bad, being Old Sucks. Rio7

What?

…..beats dying young. 😳

Ya know you are getting older when young ladies open doors for you...lol...

or call you Sir

I'd be happy with something doesn't hurt part of the time. I've scoped out high bridges a few times.

My prostrate is about right, 69. My knees are 79. My blood draw numbers are about 59.

My brain when I'm feelin good or have a good buzz, 29. Me so horney.

78. Only thing that works right is the middle finger when some SOB pulls out in front of me.
Can’t see, pee, hear, run, bend, jump, or climb.

lol, to the bedroom...

Yep. 😬

I hear the opposite.
More like...
Damn for your age...

Aint easy.

Little latina clerk at the Inconvenient Store called me Papa the other day (no she's not mine, far as I know)...

yup, no one thinks I'm 60 untell I tell them.

I remember my parents going to their doctors appointments together and making a day of it - stopping for lunch or dinner afterwards.

Now my wife and I are continuing that family tradition.

I need a faster motorcycle… You guys paint a rosy damn picture. I am 50 and other than hurting all the time someplace or several, I am healthy and strong. Work younger guys into the dirt all the time. But this lack of good sleep is going to be a problem at some point.

Had a wicked ear infection a few years back, took one of those OxyContin my wife had left from a surgery so I could get to sleep. Damn if I didn’t sleep all night. It knocked the edge off the ear pain, but cut down all the other aches too.

Happens to me frequently now, along with being addressed as "Sir" by younger folks.

I'm 31, but my lower back makes me feel like an old man.

Aches and pains are God’s way of letting you know you’re still alive. Who wants to die healthy? Eat healthy, no good food or drink and get to spend an extra 2-3 years in a nursing home
at the end of your life. Choices.

!!!!!!!!!

Getting old is hard work!
