Dear Doc DidoyI’m forty-four years old now, a company executive, diagnosed with hypertension three years ago. In my recent annual physical examination, the doctor noted an increased level of blood sugar. I feel so down with the news that I’m hypertensive and diabetic at the same time. Is there anything I can do? I don’t want to take medicines for the rest of my life. Best regards, Rose
