"Reduce The Risk Of Sudden Death By Always Being In control Of Your Health !"

I NEVER BELIEVED IN REGULAR HEALTH CHECK UPS UNTIL I HAD THIS NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE

Testimonies are a part of life, some of us have had experiences that we can term as testimonies, but some of this experiences have left us in shocks we have not been able to overcome in a while despite the fact we escaped unscathed.

This brings me to my story in the year 2019. the year everything almost went downward for my family and I.

As said earlier ,I was not a fan of regular medical check-ups.  I believed if you eat well and exercise regularly, you will be totally fine and will have nothing to fear health wise.

While that is true, it is not an assurance you will be totally free from ailments. Regular checkups are a thing of necessity no matter how careful and conscious you are of your health

CELEBRATION GONE WRONG

It was my second child's first year birthday party and we were all in a celebratory mood.

Those who knew me in my youthful days, always called me the life of the party. I always enjoyed any celebration as much as the celebrant, I never shy away from having fun

On this particular day, while the celebration as going on, all parents were called out for a dancing competition. I loved competitions like this because I was a good dancer and was sure about winning.

About five minutes into the dancing competition, I noticed that everything around me was beginning to move so fast. I was so engrossed on winning the dancing competition that I did not immediately notice that I was about to faint.

The last thing I heard was my wife's scream before I passed out. 

I woke up on a hospital bed and saw that I was surrounded by my wife and a few of my friends at the birthday party. I was so upset that I had ruined the celebration with my fainting and was trying to apologize and get up from the hospital bed as quickly as possible.

My wife immediately told me to keep calm and remain on my bed as the doctor had something to tell me in person

TERRIBLE DISCOVERY

When I had the meeting with the doctor, he asked me if I knew I was hypertensive, which to me was a very strange question. I was faithful to my good diet and always exercised.

The Doctor went on to enlighten me that about 20% of people with high blood pressure, have no knowledge of it. Then I realized that I belonged to that 20% and was very lucky it did not drive me to my early grave

He further emphasized that if at least I went for medical checkup once a year, I would have noticed it long ago and put it under control for long.

That day I learnt a big lesson I almost paid with my life. 

MORE TROUBLE.....

I was forced to do a general health checkup and at a point wondered if I would discover I have cancer for a long time and never noticed due to my negligence.

I did discover more underlying issues but thank goodness it was not as bad as cancer.

Cake and Ice cream are one of my favourite snacks, but after discovering high blood sugar levels, I had to say goodbye to my snacking habits and seriously watch my sugar level.

Treating high blood pressure and high blood sugar at the same time was mentally too much for me. I moved from being a confident young man with top notch diet and exercise routines to a man of glass being extra careful with everything I consumed and overly restricted on certain habits

Life Is Much Easier Than You Think.....

In my first few months  of discovering this new health status, I found myself constantly visiting the doctor's office, trying to ensure that my blood pressure and sugar level were in check.

I was putting a lot of efforts and sacrifices into this and was paying attention to every detail. I was that determined to get ahead of these ailments

During one of my visits to the hospital, I met a family friend who came for an appointment with the doctor. She was present at the birthday party when I had the fainting episode.

After having a good laugh about that day and how the so called Samson the strong had been reduced to strict diets and medical appointments, I was surprised to hear that my life could be much easier than it was despite my  current situation

During my chat with my family friend, she revealed to me that instead of raking up bills with regular doctor appointments trying to monitor by blood pressure and sugar level, there are new and innovative ways I could do this from the comfort of my home.

This discovery blew my mind away and absolutely changed everything.

GLORIOUS TRANSFORMATION

After my near death experience, I have learnt that when it comes to health, no one is invincible.

I don't play with my regular check ups and I also try to encourage people too to take matters of health seriously.

Death is inevitable, but dying before our time is always a tragedy.
