As I have aged, had a birthday 3 days ago, my shape has changed and it is harder to get clothes that fit right. Someone recommended underwear with HD elastic or spandex. Is there such a thing?

Arrived in Vietnam and at an intro meeting told: Take off your boots, next take off your pants, then underwear. Now, put back on our pants, and boots. Keep your underwear for cleaning your rifle. Realized underwear aren't necessary. Only time I wore them after that was at work or a fancy dress occasion.

Same, except I prefer the Free Range line of cotton boxer briefs.
But I have examples of most of their boxer briefs lines, and they're all good quality, it's just personal preference for material, style, and features.
Keep an eye out for sales and coupons. They routinely go on sale for 25-30% off, or B2G1, or similar.

Despite knocking-off ExOfficio's successful travel line of underwear 10+ yrs ago, Duluth Trading has continued with a much larger variety of designs/colors/patterns. Meanwhile, ExOfficio's parent company has diluted them and has made them largely irrelevant anymore.
Another brand I like is Saxxx, particularly their performance mesh boxer-briefs.

Hanes Comfneat boxer briefs. Cotton is softer than Duluth IMO (and cheaper...by a mile). The quality had decreased in recent years, however, like most everything, but still good enough for me.

Although they’re much different in several ways from what others have recommended, after I discovered these I haven’t worn anything else.

All that's keeping your ass and sweaty ball sac from my car's seats is just a thin layer of your pants?
That's icky.

York and Roundtree are good. Boxers of course.
