I hear you. Injuries suck. As you know I have been dealing with the back issues for several years and a injured/torn rotator cuff. I opted for no surgery and almost 2 years. It's greatly improved but not 100%.
Even though you/we are not 25 anymore I bet you, like me
am in better shape now than MOST 25 yr old.

I also feel the pain in not seeing gains or??? I dont think I have made much improvement over the last year except staying the same weight and getting a little leaner and toner.
BTW most all my bottles of Tequila are empty now
