Here I am....60 years old and am starting to fall apart one piece at a time.... Friday, Jan 19th have to go in for a CAT scan of the liver and then a possible biopsy in a week or so...all depends on the scan and what it shows.
Last week, had to go in for x-ray of the spine, hip and left leg. They already know I have arthritis...just checking to see how much worse it is getting.
I tell ya...it's hell getting old. I need a vacation.....perhaps a rockhounding trip to a warm, sunny, dry location...

Yep, I hit the big 60 next summer and I've go so friggin many pains that I use Advil like it's a food additive. Ya know, everyone says go to the gym, jog, swim, hike etc. *L* Now my feet and knees hurt from jogging, elbows and shoulders are shot from fencing, swimming and tennis, wrists are shot from boxing typing and cabbing, and my eyes are shot from reading too much about rocks and looking at the computer too much! Ya just can't win!....mel

Pho, Texas USED to be a warm, dry place....hope you aren't in the ice storm. my aunt and uncle in Del Rio were more or less trapped at home, waiting for it all to pass.

Getting old sucks but then it depends on the person too. My 83 yo mother and 73 yo neighbor can run circles around me. Pho, let us know what's up with the liver problems ok, saying a prayer for you.

Hey Pho - Where the hell did you think you were gonna go/skid/crash into after you got the door open? All I see on the news is people playin' pinball with cars and SUVs.

Pho, I truly hope everything turns out okay with the liver. I had a liver problem a few years ago that put me in the hospital for almost three months. And I would not wish that on anyone. Got fingers of both hands crossed for you.
