I have High Blood Pressure since childhood. Been taking medications from 16 years (now in my 40s).

I asked a doctor what is the cause of my high BP. He replied "either spend money on finding the cause and take medications OR just accept the fact and start taking medications from now"

I chose the latter :(

For context, I'm Pakistani so no concept of health insurance. All money would have to come from my brokea$$ family so no choice really lol
