What part of your body will wear out first?

My right knee is already getting bad. It throbs and aches and wakes me in the night. My back will act up occasionally, too.

I have developed periodontal disease (gums) and have had surgery and will have to be very very careful with them for the rest of my life.

My left knee hurts if I gain weight.

My back goes out more than I do.

My eyesight has been bad since I was 11 years old---does that count?

My left knee and ankle. I've sprained both several times. (Always the left one!) I can hear them crack, & click every time I walk up the steps.

Both of my shoulders and my knees. In my job I do alot of reaching and stooping....I hope I can hold out until I'm old enough to retire!

Come to think about it, my knees have been "clicking" since second grade.

My back. Its out again and I'm hobbling. Well I was already hobbling with a sprained ankle and the boot threw my back out. I also have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgea along with several other ailments.

Probably my eyes too. I have 3 cataracts already and I'm only 42. I cannot see small print at all.

Everywhere I have had a sprain or an injury has already started to wear out-my left shoulder is shot, and the left elbow is so loaded with scartissue and arthritis from a break I had 3 years ago that I can't even rotate my arm..but I'm going with feet..yeh I need new feet and new ankles and new knees and new well, basically EVERYTHING!

Well, I was born with odd eyesight. 20/25 in one eye, 20/400 in the other. But 10 years ago, just after I turned 40, I was diagnosed with macular degeneration. So far it is stable but to know I have a disease that will claim what eyesight I do have is...disturbing.

Aside from that I have a severe case of DBS (droopy booby syndrome). Some of you may remember how excited I was a couple of weeks ago about my new bra...I looked for another one at Kohl's today but they didn't have my size. I'll go back next week and look again.

My lower back is a source of daily aches. I think my hips are a close second though.

**freyadog** · 07-07-2008, 02:07 PM

Probably the first to go would be my mouth. Man does it flap all the time. Dont think dh would mind a bit.

Barbara ... I guess now you've mentioned it, I ought to put that to the top of my own list.

My knees are clicking; it will help when I finish losing weight, I'm sure. My eyes have progressively gotten worse. I'm not looking forward to trifocals...maybe lasik??? My right wrist and arm hurt because I am on the computer so much for work and leisure. However, I pretty much ignore everything and claim that it's all going to go away. I'm too hard headed to let it stop me.

Me too - knees and lower back. I am babysitting our grand daughter as she adjusts to new medicine. Every night I feel it in my knees and lower back. Ouch.
