Oh I feel old,but I do retire later this year !
If lucky, we will grow older.
At 68, I can relate to these, except the first one! I still have most of my teeth! My parents gifted me with good genes, I guess!

I visited my doc yesterday to seek some advice on preventing lower back pain. Almost immediately, he looked me in the eye and acknowledged that I'm just paying the price for the privilege of living past 70.

Fortunately, I still have my teeth. Have a full head of hair and I just celebrated my 84TH birthday. Maybe it's because I lead a good, clean God fearing life. Nah! It's
the genes....

Turned 84 yesterday. Don't feel a day older than 83. Oh, wait. I AM a day older than 83.
LUCKY YOU! My teeth are fine, but my hair is GONE! Well, not exactly gone, but migrated to the sides, requiring me to wear a hat 24/7, not because of vanity, but because my head gets COLD!
How about your your ears and nose ... sometimes eye brows go crazy...
Sound like you need a new doctor, I'am 83 and never had a back pain.

OH, YES! The hair from the top of my head just migrated to my ears and nose! I'm not "skin-head bald", just enough hairs up there to call attention to the fact that they're ALL ALONE! ";-)
I don't know how many of you have heard of Dr. Dean Edell. He had a radio program years ago. I listened to him on a radio station out of San Francisco. One thing he mentioned many times was, "If you want to live a long, healthy life, choose your parents well".
Yep, growing old is not for cowards, 70 next month.
