At least I qualify to join this thread. 😄
Born 1945 here.
I do read a lot of your threads darkie but I am one of the fortunate people with no health problems, well only very minor ones.
It is nice to have a seniors thread.

I don't qualify yet, but I would have thought that Baby Boomers started in 1946. The Post war babies, although I guess it takes 9 months to have a baby so late 1946 on would be baby boomers.
Enjoy your thread. It is a great idea.
According to Google Baby Boomers are from 1946 - 1961

You are lucky to have good health Richo.
I went to the dr. yesterday to get results of a CT scan I had done on my spine. Then she decided she wanted blood tests done, so had to fast and have them this morning.
Seems every time I go to the dr for one thing, I end up having to go for tests for something else.
The CT scan showed that I dont have osteo arthritis, so that is a good plus, but I do have spinal problems.

What a great thread, thanks for starting it. Darki I've just scraped in and am thankful to say my health is pretty good apart from some bits and pieces.
Purple I've just been diagnosed with stenosis in the spine which is a narrowing somewhere or the other that causes pain sometimes. My doc who never is fond of overmedicating says the right exercise can help enormously, like core strengthening, and I've found some good ones on the internet. Not that I'm saying it's for you , but just me.
I think as you get older the right diet and exercise are more important than ever, I really believe in it. (though right now don't do much of either ;\) What do others think?

Darkie, 1944 here. The reason that we aren't labelled is that we were too individual to be part of a herd. LOL.
