  3. All my bits fell off at 50. Honestly I woke up the day after my big birthday to find I'd gone half deaf in one ear. Then my hip starting aching and hasn't stopped.
    Frankly 60 will be a relief as there's not much left to go wrong that hasn't already. :p
     
  4. I thought that, and and was quite vocal by the time I'd got to 63, about the fact that I hadn't needed any free prescriptions. In the 7 years since then I've had prostate cancer, a heart attack, and been diagnosed with type2 diabetes. But i'm probably in better health now than I have been for a long time. I go to a happy heart exercise class every week, and also meet up with a Nordic Walking group once a week :)
     
  5. Ooh hard luck. But sounds like you're on top of it now. Was grimly amused to hear a doctor friend saying that the age span of 65-75 (I think) is dubbed 'sniper alley' in the medical profession as that's when stuff gets you ...or not. Make it through and you're fine to 100.
