4/5 Having High Blood Pressure
Watch your blood pressure. “High blood pressure is associated with increased long-term risk of heart attacks and strokes,” says Mike Gnitecki, a Paramedic in Dallas, Texas to Bustle. “If you have high blood pressure, please discuss it with your doctor. Your doctor can likely put you on a medication such as Metoprolol (a beta blocker) that can reduce your blood pressure,” Gnitecki adds.
