I am sorry to hear that your onset was so serious. What a wake up call for us "health fiends." I am in my mid 60's, have exercised every day for 30 years, but in the last year, my life has been a continuum of sinus infections, parotid gland infection and other weird URIs. And exercise has often taken a back seat. Some days I think my healthy lifestyle has prevented a serious onset, but after reading some of these posts from other healthy individuals, a serious onset can come suddenly out of the blue. I've always cherished my ability to exercise, play the piano, etc., and lived life to the fullest. One of the scariest things about Wegs is the loss of control of a lifestyle I appreciated and loved so much. I hope you continue to improve.
