Health is really your wealth

Its true the saying Health is wealth. coz you know why, if you ain't healthy, you would find you would be much poorer. You need $$$ so spend on medication and all that jazz.

Since I was diagnosed with high blood pressure, I am so thankful that I have a job and my company pays for my medical bills. I am into my 3rd dose of medication. Each time the DR can only give me 30 tablets. These are very mild dosage tablets. I have gotten a second opinion who agrees with that.

Yesterday, I went to get my dose of medication and was told that I would need to go for medical test - blood test, ecg, xray, every year!! I asked why. DR explained that its becoz with high BP, it can cause damage to your kidneys, may cause heart attack, etc. AIIII.... i have never been in this sort of state before. I have almost been quite healthy.

I need to make some changes to my life style.

I had try to reduce the BP without medication for 1 year and one bout of sharp pain and terrible migrane, rushed me to the DR and I then decided to start on the medication. I don't think its a bad move on my side but I would really really like to stop depending on medication and maybe go for a more natural way of reducing this.
