I think that I am, even though I have epilepsy I get the responsibilities and tasks, but isn't like say 5 or 10 yrs ago, still active at 59. My opinion, what's yours.

Much less active because I can't drive to a pool and I feel unsteady on my bike.

I’m definitely less active. Used to commute to work, then walk the rest of the way to work. I used to go to the gym 4 days a week. And on the weekends I’d be out all day. Never inside. Always moving.

I'm going to be 63 in 4 months and since I was diagnosed I am so much less active. I hate it, it drives me crazy! I miss my Pilates and long walks. But until my seizures are controlled, except for Dr.'s appointments and the dang fatigue, plus the insane 106* temperatures we've been having. I'm housebound.
