Welcome to the New Good Health for 60 & Over
Good Health over 60 is a group where you can discuss health issues and keeping active.
Are we really over 60? We do not look 60 or act 60. But sometimes our bodies seem to need more attention. OK, we know to watch our weight, exercise, see the doctor regularly, etc. Or maybe we have serious problems, that happens too. Need to talk? The group is listening.

Wonderful site for senior citizens
Hi,
There is one online foreign pharmacy which provides prescription medications at low cost and very reliable too. This is a great resource for the seniors who have not got insured.

Topics?
Hello everyone,
I am new to the group. What topics do you want to discuss? Is there certain things on your mind? The title of group is Health of 60 and Over, and I assume that is why everyone joined. Please let me know what to talk about. Better yet, start a new discussion. Thanks! Linda

I have been seeing an ad on Eons for a site called Live Elated. I will have to go back and read more later. I did read some of the Dr. Bob article. view link
5 Things You Must Know About Sleep
This story was on Yahoo this morning. It was funny because both Bruce and I got up at 5:30am. That is normal for me, and I complain all the time. He is the opposite, he sleeps very well.
Part of the article:
For instance, insomnia is said to be the most common sleep disorder, but these dissatisfying sleep experiences only get in the way of daily activities for 10 percent of us, according to the National Institutes of Health. And in almost half of those cases, the real underlying problem is illness (often mental) or the effects of a substance, like coffee or medication

Finding a doctor
Has anyone else have trouble find a new doctor?
Here is a bit of my story:
I use these groups as my journal some times, that group is one of them. I don't like going to the doctor, but my arthritis doctor insisted I get a primary doctor. Finding one who takes Medicare is a problem. I tried 2, one a walk-in clinic. Just felt uncomfortable with both settings. (I said I'm not that sick or that poor.) Yesterday I got an appointment with a nurse practicator (sp)

Hi: I was just checking out all of eons groups and found this one. I fit I'm 65. I have lost 54 pounds since Jan of 07. My wife and I try to walk 4-6 times a week about 2 miles each day. We are feeling much better. I also work out with weights 6 times a week. I use very light weights and lots of reps. I put 22 years in the U.S. Navy as a diver and put on all this weight when I retired into a desk job. Feeling good now. Bob

Hello Everyone
I am from Philadelphia, moved to Florida 4yrs ago. Just love it down here,don't know what took me so long to get here. I will be hitting the 65 mark next month. But feeling pretty good. I still work a few days a week, so that keeps me active. Like my gardening,and would like to take my dog to obedience school. He is a Min Pin rescue. And my baby. Well hope everyone is doing well. Catch up later.
HI THERE!!!
I'm from Alabama originally but now live in Florida panhandle (right under Al.) The weather here is nice but very hot. We have to keep an eye out for hurricaines - we had 2 big bad ones before Katrina & still can see some of the damage & that was over 4 years ago.
I have good days & really bad days. I get depressed because I can't do the things I want to do & used to do. Boy getting old sucks.
I think it hit me that I was old when I saw something on the news about an elderly person & they were younger than me. That hurt.
Have a great weekend - stay young

PTL!!!! I'm back!!!!
I sat down at the computer to play a game a little while ago, and have something to eat, and lo, and behold....4 green lights were on instead of only 2 on our cable box!!!!!!!!!
Yippee! We are finally back online and have our cable service restored after nearly 5 whole days without it. I was afraid it was going to be a few more days yet, so I was pleasantly surprised. It is such a relief to have our digital home phone service back and have a dial tone again. It was getting so frustrating to have to walk up the street all the time to get a decent signal on my cell phone, especially now that the hot sun and mosquitoes are out again.
Please continue to pray for the residents of South Padre Island and other communites in the Rio Grande Valley that were hit hard by the storm (Hurricane Dolly). Our own neighborhood was much more fortunate than others. The water receded quickly here on our street and in our driveway. The only water that leaked into our home was what came in around one window unit air conditioner in our bedroom, due to the strong winds. After mopping it up I ended up having to wash two whole loads of towels when the power came back on Thursday. I was so thankful to be able to wash and dry them, because the humidity was too high to dry them by outdoor air afterward.
Thank you to all of you who prayed for us.
