The Covid-19 Virus pandemic created a lot of fear for people to go out of their homes in the fear of getting infected. Some are so afraid to go out that they even defer going to the doctor for their regular check-ups and even treatment. Even my wife and I have not been on our regular checkups. That is bad considering that I’m hypertensive and have cholesterol issues and my wife is diabetic and hypertensive as well.
Not going for regular check-ups increases the risk of hypertension and diabetes complications. Without the check-ups, sugar levels can increase unmonitored with diabetic patients. As well as people with hypertension health issues, regular blood tests to monitor blood pressure levels and bad cholesterol are very important.
Vaccinations are very important as well. We do your yearly flu-shots but not this year with the pandemic.
Luckily nowadays with the advent of modern technology of telemedicine and e-health, there are options for you to get your regular check-ups without leaving the safety net of our homes.
