I see the kidney doc 4 times a year with extensive labs, diabetes/thyroid doc 4 times a year with extensive labs, Skin doc and heart doc 2 times a year.
Also I'm married to a woman from Vietnam who wants me to take herbal meds. Like I said I am likely the most doctored man you know.
I did purchase a bike, Trek Shift 3 which has gotten far less use than I would like to report. I haven't given up on it but I find that unless the weather is pretty good I'm not going to ride.
I used to ride a mountain bike, 20 plus years ago, on trails in the woods. It was great fun and great exercise. I recommend it to those who are physically able. Its best to go to a real bike shop and get a bike worth owning. Also in all the ads they only show young skinny people riding bikes but older fat people can ride and have fun doing it. 73, Mike
I have A- Fib and Diabetes along with high blood Pressure , I am retiring from my job and going full time scraping hoping I will be more active!
