1 year denial after hbp diagnosis July 3,  2016  2:45pm EST

I was diagnosed with high blood pressure in 2012 at 28. I refused to accept it until a year later with the encourag3ment from my mom, i got to see a cardio. I am still trying to overcome and understand d ailment wen i just heard my dear 30year old freind was down with stroke. I was shocked cos forbme that is really young.   A support group like this is so on point because lots of people afta dey find out they have the condition are too afraid to do the right thing. Which is take control of their lives. I hope to learn a lot how to manage it better on this forum
