After the last ER trip from experiencing double vision for a bit, shortly after consulting with a neuro surgeon about a pain in my leg that everyone tells me is actually bone spurs in my spine, just after....well, you get the picture?

Now My Bride of 28 years has always had vision problems, vertigo issues, aches and pains, etc. but....I never have! All this is 'new' to 'old' me and I don't have any idea what's normal and what should be concerning enough to seek medical advice...and I am getting a little ashamed to even call on the medical folks any more.
They never say 'well...you're getting older' but still...

So I'm trying out this forum to hopefully hear from experience just what joy I have to look forward to? LOL

Hi Dave, welcome to the group. . .
We'll all start to see health changes - fortunately, just a little at a time, not all at once.
Hope all goes well,
Mack
