After being hospitalized for severe headache and hypertension, Queen of all Media Kris Aquino vowed to undergo a lifestyle change – a “healthy work and life balance”.
On her Instagram account, Kris posted an update about her health condition after undergoing some tests:
“The good news: my heart is strong, and in 5 weeks of healthy & conscious nutrition I lowered my bad cholesterol by 30 points & upped my good cholesterol by 5 points. My colonoscopy wasn’t cause for concern but they did remove 2 small polyps which will be checked by the laboratory & we’ll get results by Tuesday. The not so good news is based on my blood works, I’m very anemic (Dr Martinez said just a few points lower & he’d have made me get a transfusion already) my hemoglobin count is 20 points below the low threshold, which means I need to up my iron intake & get more rest. My health concerns we now know have really been caused by stress & exhaustion.
Sharing this w/ all of you so you won’t fear getting a full medical checkup. I was afraid of my results, but now I feel relieved. In our family there’s the genetic risk for heart disease & cancer, and I’m glad I gave my health the attention it deserves.
Special thanks to my doctors: Dr Ramos, Dr Roxas, Dr Devera, Dr Caparas, Dr Lavilles, Dr Ancheta & Dr Martinez. Going home shortly for a couple of days rest. Happy weekend IG Friends. God bless you all w/ good health.”
In an earlier post, Kris thanked all her followers for the prayers:
“Thank you God. I finished my Chest XRay, Stress Test & 2D Echo and my heart is physically in good shape! The rest of my tests (ultrasound, colonoscopy, eye examination, blood works, etc) will be done tomorrow morning. Thank you IG Friends for the prayers for my good health.”
