Jessica Watson Instagram – Did you know hypertension (high blood pressure in plain speak) is the leading risk factor of stroke?
Australia’s Biggest Blood Pressure Check is running throughout May and it’s World Hypertension Day today, and I’m making the pledge to check my blood pressure. It’s actually not something I’ve asked my doctor to check recently. Of all people, I should know better!
Please do the same and remind (or better harass, nag, insist!) your mates to – no matter how young and healthy they are.
Cam was only 29 when he suffered a fatal stroke as a result of undiagnosed hypertension in 2021.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll no doubt nag you about it again. It’s such a simple, painless thing, and it could save a life.
