"Can still do most things reasonably well" Jesus you're 45 not 85
Spoken like someone in their 30s at most lol
Ok doc, what do you suggest? I'm 40 and somehow my 80 year old mother has better mobility than I do. I can't even tell you why I have pain, there is no injury. Doctors can't tell me why. I've tried everything short of opioids and back surgery, and I know those aren't going to help either. What the hell do you do when your body just doesn't react normally to exercise, stretching, physical therapy, etc?? It's not that I want to accept that this is my life now, but there don't seem to be any other options. Just be glad this isn't happening to you, I guess.
People with 50 behave like they are 80
