Thinking about my post from the other day, Being One of The Forgotten, I started to also think about the aches and pains that I have begun to feel within my body, even now that I am not too old.

Now I know I am not hearing any sympathy out there, but lately I have been starting to feel my age, especially in my hands and arms. Some people might think it was something like carpal tunnel or (I can’t say the word) arthritis. Others (J-Mom) included may say that it hs something to do with over use of the computer. I on’t know, but have noticed that lately after typing I have been feeling a lot of pain in my hands and forearms.

I had this checked out by a doctor, but to no avail and to no satisfaction of my own. (I was basically told to take 3 Ibuprofrin 3X daily). Well…to me that doesn’t seem to answer any questions!

I know that there are many others out there that are far worse off than I, but it is a bit sad to think that being in your early 30’s you can still feel old at a young age.

As my grandfather once told me, “Getting Old Sucks!” I always have remembered this, and have vowed that I will do whatever I can to keep my body young as long as I can. Not only for me, but for my family’s sake!

So my question for the day:

- Have you felt this way? What have you done to keep yourself young?

    Been there…..AM there - and have quite a few years on ya!
    What do I do? Watch what I eat, try to move more than I sit (still can’t make myself exercise) - and make a concerted effort to keep on learning new things.
    I really believe that as the mind is - so is the body - keep one busy and interested, active and engaged, and somehow the body follows along…..and it works for me…..so far…. :-)

    It happens to all of us. I have found endurance exercise to be the best medicine. Bicycling, running, hiking, etc. It also relieves stress.
