OP: Reading your issues, sounds like you figured a lot out about where you are now. So many I'm sure ended up with health issues from what they loved to do in their lives, job wise and fun. I know my sister did who ended up with MS and I believe in her life, it was stress of the job and also foods.

For me it probably was a lot of dancing, which I loved to do and a lot of exercise, and stress from jobs but I worked on my health as best I could thru my life. Now at 83, I can't do much but have good memories.

I've been a back sleeper for probably 11 yrs since hip replacement and I can't sleep on sides, especially hip surgery side and the other side I mess up my shoulder....so it's the back. And I do sleep good. Hope you'll get some insights here.
