When I first knew about the website <https://familyhistory.hhs.gov> I created my family health history to compare my health with the health of my ancestors. It was interesting whether modern medicine really gives people opportunity to be healthier than before. To create my family health history I spent a lot of time talking to my grandmothers and aunts as parents, mothers especially, always know better what health problems their children have. So, according to elder women of our family, all its members has some health problems, me and my cousins consider ourselves to be quite healthy people, and our youngest cousins (from 4 to 8 years old) and my nephews (from 5 years old to 1 month old) are sure that they have no problems with their health at all.
Turn to the facts now. I know that many of my family members suffer from different gastrointestinal disturbances. For example my mother suffers from duodenal ulcer, and my father suffers from stomach ulcer. So, from early childhood I know what food one is allowed and not allowed to eat, if has these diseases. But there were some facts that puzzled me a lot. To my surprise, I have learnt that not only my paternal grandfather had infarction but several other relatives as well. It means that my siblings, my cousins and I also run risks to undergo a cardiac disease. Moreover, my father was recently diagnosed with ischemic heart disease, so my siblings and I should care about our future health and pay a lot of attention to our hearts work.
From the moment I knew about my father disease I read a lot of articles and recommendations concerning this illness, its treatment and methods to prevent its development.
For example, I have known that not only strain may cause this awful disease but way of life as well. So, I decided to follow cardiologists’ recommendations and begin to go in for sport actively. I do not smoke, but my sister and my father do, which is unhealthy hazard both for them and for other family members. I insist on their getting rid of this terrible habit for the sake of our health. Also I knew that to prevent heart disease everybody is to keep track of his/her cholesterol level as it is one of the main factors of cardiac disorders.
To tell the truth, I created my family health history with the help of <https://familyhistory.hhs.gov/fhh-web/home.action> just to bate my curiosity. But this website helped me to see past, present and future of my family health problems, and I became aware of real threats and real strain in our family. Now I take this very seriously, and will try to do my best to avoid our so-called “family” diseases such as ulcer and cardiac disease.
