Interesting thought but what would life look like without exercise, stress, allergies, colds, flu. Everything causes inflammation. I had asthma as kid, still do to some extent. My body produces histamine at just the sight of a cat. inflammation will swell my eyes closed. The older I get stress is hard to cope with. I cant do anything anymore that is by the seat of pants. I cant live knowing it might cause inflammation. I have gone to the gym and lifted weights my whole life. Very heavy at times to develop strength and muscle. I still lift as heavy as I can. PMR slowed me down when I couldnt get out of bed but 4 hrs after the steroid . no pain. I was right back at the gym. Headed there now and have to mow the yard today. But I have no pain and off steroids.
