I AM YOUNG BUT PREHYPERTENSIVE

I am a 23year old guy and a final year student at the University.My mum is hypertensive and I see her taking her medications most frequently.Seriously, I didn't know high blood pressure was hereditary till I read it on your page.Although my lifestyle is not the best to be considered as healthy but I do well with my exercises at the gym centre.And I thought that was cool for my age.This statement kept ringing in my ears"Do you know your reading?",till I went to a clinic nearby to check my blood pressure reading.I was amazed when the nurse explained the readings to me after several checks(130/89 - 132/90mmHg).My heart began to beat more faster than normal but after the education by the nurse and doctor on duty,I felt better and wanted more of the education.After checking my blood pressure for three days,the doctor confirmed me as Prehypertensive and told me how easy to work on it with lifestyle modification but not medications.They told me more of all that you have been sharing on your page.Now I've taken this high blood pressure campaign serious by urging all my friends to know their readings and also adopting to healthy lifestyle.Please the earlier the better,don't see yourself to be young.Know your blood pressure readings.....

JOKE THERAPY

A guy was in love with a girl but never had the guts to tell her. One night around 10, he gathered some courage & sent her a text with these honest words... "Doreen, I love you, Plz reply & tell me how you feel." A few seconds later he received a message alert on his phone. He was so scared and too tensed to open it that night so he decided not to check the message until the next morning when he's less tense and in better senses. So he went to sleep. When he woke up the next day he prayed seriously about the message for good news, went about doing his morning chores, brushed his teeth, ate his breakfast took a bath, dressed himself up then climbed into bed and picked his phone to read the message on his phone. This was the response he read: "Dear customer you have insufficient balance to send this message. Please recharge your account and try again".😄😃😄
