Screening caught my very high blood pressure before I had a stroke. Daily medication keeps my numbers reasonable.
All the doctors I've ever seen lectured me about diet, exercise, hydration, and sleep habits ad nauseam. There was no escaping it.
Lots of alcoholics in my father's family, so I know to steer clear of booze. Genetics!
Migraine treatment has very much improved in my lifetime, for which I'm quite grateful. I can give myself a shot (like with an EpiPen) and carry on rather than retreat to a dark bedroom for hours of misery.
Having had a covid scare in 2020 (turned out to be double pneumonia), I am zealous about getting all my vaccinations. With lupus, I'm at increased risk.
In short, you're the liar here. Pull your lower lip over your head and swallow.
