Share your comments on “your life with hypertension” and/or your experience of AIM HY INFORM Clinical Trial.

” I was diagnosed with high blood pressure more than 10 years ago. In August 2015, I had a Coronary Angioplasty surgery when three stents were inserted in one of my heart’s arteries. My symptoms improved a bit but not significantly. In August 2017, I saw an advert inviting people to participate in the AIM HY programme. I hurriedly offered myself as a guinea-pig. I have only started the first round of dual therapy and believe me, I am feeling so much better.

For the first time in many years, I ran to catch a bus without feeling short of breath. I have opted to be an ambassador of this programme because it is effective.
