Hi
@Antje77
Missed the post originally, hope issue resolved itself at some point.
Curious so a question to all.
I had tennis elbow.....
.....Wrist tendonitis....swollen & aching ankle
And a knee that ballooned & became so sore to walk on I ended up using a walking stick to get around.
And ended up buying a plethora of 'aids' to ease the pains.
Which all worked to varying degrees from low to high, to temper the symptoms.
All of this happened in my 50's..none of it seemed to happen at the same time or even year, and each lasted around a month, give or take...(wrist was a repeat offender ..big believer in the first signs it's getting sore, put a wrist strap on asap..saves weeks of pain )
Not sure, but I put it all down to being in my 50's....forgetting I was 50 at times
.. AND any strains, etc just exceeding my powers of recovery, I told myself we just don't heal as well after 50 years of self repairing
But that phase only lasted say 5/6 years...then the litany of pains & strains just stopped..
By way of note I got DX'd age 59, went lchf, and Touchwood none of those issues have ever resurfaced.
So I'm likely close on 8/9 years since my run of joints pain & inflammation.
More convinced now the original issues were from my age
The repairs, I now believe, is that maybe my body finally managed to readjust and upped its recuperative powers in some way.
I had originally thought I'd unconsciously began performing task in a way that caused less strain (aka slowed down & stopped trying to act like I'm still 20 )
But after DX I joined a gym, began attempting C2K by jogging and running circuits around our local streets & parks
So fully expected some return of my previous aches, but nothing of that nature returned.
Missus began complaining of similar issues, circa mid 50's which is where I sympathised but had my 'aha' moment of 'proof of concept '
Be very curious if that 50's body fatigue is common ?
Anyone care to add an age in the name of science
