Make a doctor’s appointment to talk about how to keep your heart healthy. Talk to your doctor your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood glucose (sugar) numbers! We make small decisions that affect our health every day. What will you choose for a healthy heart? Put #YourHeartFirst — make an appointment with your doctor soon rather than later.
