I've known someday I'd have problems. I've been a diabetic for 35 years and had HBP and high cholesterol for 19 of those years. Heart problems also run in my family - my mother, my father, my late uncle. Luckily, I've been aware of what I need to do and have always tried to do it. I'm not perfect, though. As soon as I began having shortness of breath and pain in my clavicles, I went to the doctor. Don't ignore anything different in your health - it could save your life!!
