Later, most of the elders of the grandfather's generation died of cerebral hemorrhage in their sixties and seventies. Therefore, this disease has been like a shadow in our hearts for a long time.
My father found that his blood pressure was high when he was less than fifty years old. Fortunately, he was well educated and realized the adverse consequences of hereditary diseases, so he actively sought medical treatment. Thanks to the progress of medicine and the improvement of people's health awareness, after repeated debugging by cardiologists, my father selected antihypertensive drugs that were effective in adapting to his symptoms. Because he didn't want to repeat the family tragedy, his father insisted on taking medicine on time every day. In his words, he would never forget to take medicine even if he forgot to eat!
More than thirty years have passed in a flash. My father is now in his eighties and his blood pressure is always within a reasonable range. Later, the blood pressure of several uncles and aunts in the family was also relatively high. Under the influence of their father, they also received regular hospital examinations and took medication every day as ordered by the doctor. Now they are in their 80s. Everyone lives in health, breaking the curse of our family!
In 2014, when I organized a physical examination at my unit, I found that I also had high blood pressure. This was expected and I was mentally prepared. After multiple and multiple periods of measurement, it was confirmed that the diastolic blood pressure and systolic blood pressure were between 95 and 140. The cardiologist recommends several drugs. I try to take them and keep a record of the blood pressure measurement period, make a curve fluctuation chart, and carefully record the physical condition after taking the medicine for the doctor to refer to. Later, the doctor determined to use irbesartan sustained-release antihypertensive drugs based on the situation, once a day for 24 hours, which was not troublesome. I started taking
one tablet a day, but after feeling dizzy and uncomfortable after falling off my blood pressure. After the doctor calculated, I changed it to half a tablet a day. I have been taking it for seven or eight years and my blood pressure is stable and normal.
It is not scary to suffer from hypertension. What is scary is that many people do not pay attention to scientific treatments, avoid medical treatment, listen to folk remedies and herbs, and are afraid of long-term treatment for life. Many people stop or reduce the dose after taking the medicine after taking the medicine. As a result, their blood pressure fluctuates and falls, which has a greater impact on the heart, brain and kidneys, and there is a huge risk! Just like the water pressure of rubber hose is higher and lower, it is more likely to cause fatigue and burst, and the consequences are irreversible.
In addition to strictly abiding by medical advice and taking medicine scientifically for a long time, our family also maintains a good lifestyle and daily life. Pay attention to less oil and salt in your diet, mainly high in protein, low in fat, low in carbohydrates, ensure green vegetables and fruits every day, and control your weight within health standards. At the same time, developing moderate aerobic exercise habits, such as walking, , swimming, jumping, etc., is conducive to maintaining the elastic and toughness of blood vessels.
Another one, you should have a good quality blood pressure monitor at home and measure your blood pressure regularly. If you feel uncomfortable or have high blood pressure, do not take it hard or take medicine randomly. Seek medical treatment in time.
These are my personal experiences of effectively fighting hypertension under the guidance of the doctor.
I hope these experiences and experiences can help you, and I wish you good health!
