High blood pressure is branded a 'silent killer' with up to one in four adults in the UK suffering despite many not realising it, according to the NHS.
There are often no noticeable symptoms for high blood pressure, or hypertension, but if left untreated the condition can increase your risk of serious health problems such as heart attacks or strokes.
After receiving a severe high blood pressure diagnosis, a "healthy" mum of four is issuing a warning explaining that the issue could have been a "ticking time bomb". The 59-year-old is urging people to have their blood pressure checked after getting the shocking news.
Lynda Sutton, from Dublin, rarely visited a doctor assuming she was "invincible" due to her active lifestyle, reports Dublin Live.
"But really, I could have been a ticking time bomb. I thought I was healthy before, but I have completely changed my diet. I’m eating plenty of fruit and veg and no salt", she said.
"If the dog was sick, I would take her to the vet but if I was sick, I would never go to the doctor. That’s changed now and I know how important it is to get your blood pressure checked"
But now the mum is urging people to pay attention, getting their bloody pressure checked regularly - especially if over the age of 50 - after her potentially dangerous condition was discovered at an Irish Heart Foundation Mobile Health Unit parked near her local library in March.
There are often no symptoms, with most only realising they suffer after having their blood pressure checked.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic In comic-book movies, when it comes to a hero’s superpowers — flying, lifting objects, repelling bullets, the indomitability of a shield or hammer — the audience is almost always on the outside looking in. But in “The Flash,” when the title character throttles forward at the speed of the hot-singe lightning streaks at his back, or floats through the air in slowed-down motion so beyond bullet-time that a mere second appears to last forever, the movie makes us part of the experience. We know just what he’s going through, which is why the scene gives you a jolt. Early on, Barry Allen (Ezra Miller), a forensic chemist in the Central City Police Department, receives a call from Alfred (Jeremy Irons) — yes, that Alfred — letting him know that there’s an attack underway, and that none of the other Justice League members, notably Batman, is around to help. So Barry, in his form-fitting red thermal crystal helmet and suit, zoom-runs all the way to Gotham City, where he confronts a high-rise hospital whose east wing is collapsing, leaving a nursery full of newborns falling through the air. The extended sequence in which he saves them, grabbing energy bites of candy and burrito in between, has the feel of an underwater comedy ballet. It’s life-or-death but cheeky as hell. Just like our cracked hero.
