@dadcue thanks Mike. I don’t open up to others but feel completely safe here. Having contact with others in this group has been invaluable. Please don’t stop writing. It’s reassuring that we can connect with others and are heard.

Totally agree. PMR is depressing because it's like someone flipped a switch on us and all of a sudden we can't do the things we could do before this. I was never a runner, a gym rat or a fitness fanatic but I enjoyed doing what I wanted to do when I wanted to do it. Even the simple things are now difficult and I have absolutely no stamina. I feel like I aged 20 years in the blink of an eye. Some days it's really difficult not to feel robbed of time at a time of my life where time is so precious.
