Content developed independently by our editors and supported by our partners. About five years ago, Bren Cox, 57, knew something strange was going on with her health. Her doctors repeatedly told her that her symptoms, like headaches and fatigue, were just a normal part of aging, and that she was making a big deal out of nothing. But when Cox woke up in the middle of the night, and her head hurt so badly that she couldn’t even see, she had her husband take her to the ER. That kicked off her diagnosis journey, and Cox ultimately learned that she had polycythemia vera (PV), a rare blood cancer. In the three years since she was diagnosed, Bren has tried different treatments, learned how to become her own advocate, and created an Instagram account to help others with the disease. Here’s her story, as told to health writer Alice Oglethorpe.

Arteries are blood vessels in the body that carry blood away from the heart and throughout the body. There are two types of arteries: systemic arteries and pulmonary arteries. Systemic arteries carry oxygen-rich blood from the left side of the heart to the body by way of the body's largest artery, the aorta. Pulmonary arteries carry oxygen-depleted blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs.

When the definition of what constitutes hypertension changed, so did people’s understanding that high blood pressure is neither songworthy nor something to be taken lightly.
