A look at Rakesh`s long post

Rakesh described how he discovered that the "carotid arteries to the brain were above 75% blocked" during a regular examination. In a long post, he wrote, "This week has been truly eye-opening. During a routine full-body health check-up, the doctor conducting the sonography for the heart suggested I also do one for the neck. By chance, we found out that although asymptomatic, both my carotid arteries to the brain were above 75% blocked. Which, if ignored, could be potentially dangerous."

He was discharged from the hospital after the "preventative procedures" were finished. "I immediately admitted myself into the hospital and got the preventative procedures done. I am back home now, fully recovered, and hope to get back to my workouts very soon. I hope this inspires others to stay on top of their health, especially where the heart and brain are concerned," he added.
