It was high. It also indicates that you need to take good care of yourself and be health conscious. Do the right things to avoid future stress. Begin with a preventive health check up with a doctor who can check your vitals and suggest some basic tests like ECG, CBC, ESR, blood sugar, urine routine, Renal profile, lipid profile etc. Please revert with all the details. (Go for annual health check up for the family to keep a check on the body ). Regarding your daily routine, a minor change in lifestyle can help you stay fit and energetic. Commit to exercising everyday for 30 mins (increase it to one hour once you start enjoying the energy and stamina boost that comes naturally after exercising ). Eat more. Healthy and natural diet (homemade food preferred with 2-3 servings of fruits and vegetables ). Avoid junk food, processed and packaged food and beverages (soda drinks) as they contain lots of salt, sugar,preservatives etc which is not good for health. Avoid or limit alcohol. Sleep well (6-8 hrs of sleep will relax you and help in controlling the BP ). Learn Yoga from an expert to gain back health and fitness.
