Let us see. What problems,,Hmmm
Basic stuff like back, knee, stomach surgery and a massive heart attack destroying 49% of my Heart.... What a Fucking outstanding ride on life's highway to Hell. Wouldn't trade it for anything..:-P
What would I contribute these problems?
Genetics maybe, 25% genetics and the rest to my prior poor diet, previous life style and dangerous work environments.

Jesus, man! Describe what that heart attack was like for me, did you know what was going on when it happened? Were you working out or just doing regular things? Did you get the usual tingle in your left arm?

The inexplicable need to bread and deep fry it and then serve it with a nice cocktail sauce. Maybe it's because I refer to them as killer clams.

Getting old has made me a grumpy fucker, I'd bitch if you hung me with a new rope!
Bad Knees both blew out in my 30s and 40s had surgery on them Hereditery I'm told.
Bad Back 1 1/2" shorter than I was in the 60s. I live on ibprophen..
Most the time I'm easy going but some times I just blow up at stupid shit...

My dad all through his 50's, 60's and 70's would always say when asked about his health, "I'm so healthy it's sickening!" Now that he is in his 80's? "I'm old, damn it, OLD!"

What health issues do you attribute to lifestyle compared to genetics as you've aged?

Do you feel your eating or smoking (cigs) habits have caused damage to your body over the years?

If you could go back, would you still do it, or would you take better care of yourselves?

Those that are elderly with no medical conditions, what do you attribute it to? What's the key to longevity?

No hearing. Too many years of playing live music and riding Harley's with drag pipes.

Back broken in 5 places in 1981 skiing over a cliff in a blinding blizzard, Wolf Creek Pass, CO.

Broken collarbone, torn rotator cuff and my right deltoid muscle ripped free from the bone/tendon trying to keep a 600+pound patient from tipping over in a wheelchair. Mutiple surgeries, rehab and ultimately terminated because I could not lift 35 pounds over my head 2 months post-injury even though I was recovering from second surgery.

Yes, I would go back and not do this crap had I known I would live this long without being senile.

Plus it made me hate these motherfucking rich sonsofbitches and their politician buddies who cover their asses with little sections of the law that release them from any damages.

Been in medicine 34 years and have never heard that theory or charge. Any more info on that or just their word? Breast cancer is one that frequently recurs even in non-smoking women.

Gout, I gather is an allergic reaction to something (Ususally in shell fish for the Japanese), that makes the extremities swell.
I had an old boss, that I used to fuck with whenever he would come in limping in the morning, I would razz him, and ask..... Who's the dumb fuck that had seafood last night?

Gout is from a buildup of uric acid in the blood. This acid forms crystals, often in joints, and is extremely - repeat extremely - painful to gout sufferers. The big toe is often stricken but any joint can be affected. Drug of choice (primary) to prevent is allopurinol.
