I've had high blood pressure for years. It could be affecting my heart and kidneys. Over time, high blood pressure can strain the heart, leading to problems like heart disease. It can also damage the blood vessels in my kidneys, which might cause kidney issues. It's really important to manage my blood pressure through the right treatment and lifestyle changes. Regular check-ups with my doctor can help protect both my heart and kidneys from further damage.
