I'm 62 and I have arthritic calcification all over my L4, L5, shoulder, knee, and ankle joints from what the docs tell me about my x-rays. So far (knocking wood) it hasn't limited me yet. Yeah, my knees give me some grief now and again but it hasn't stopped me from squats or deadlifts. My lower back does cause me to miss or change up my workouts when it's tightened up on me, but my chiro has dealt with those problems pretty effectively too.
My blood pressure is now (took damn near a year of dosages and med shuffling) 120 over 80. I take Diovan HCT in the mornings and Hytrin at night. They don't take a toll on me other than sweating a lot because of the diuretic effects of the Diovan. But then I always did sweat a lot anyway.
