My name is Mrs. Swapna, and I am from Muneerabad village. I was enrolled in the LIFE study during the early weeks of my pregnancy and received regular antenatal care at MIMS. At seven months, I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and admitted to MIMS for monitoring. Despite being prescribed two medications, my blood pressure remained uncontrolled, and after 15 days of observation, I underwent an emergency caesarean section.

My name is Narasimha Reddy from Srirangavaram Village. I am grateful to have participated in the TOPSPIN Clinical Drug Trial for hypertension, which has greatly improved my health. Having lost faith in allopathic medicine earlier—after witnessing a relative’s struggle with uncontrolled diabetes—I was relying only on herbal remedies. However, during the TOPSPIN screening in October 2024, I discovered that my blood pressure and sugar levels were dangerously high. With persistent guidance from the program team and doctors at MediCiti Hospital, I underwent thorough evaluation, counselling, and treatment, which restored my confidence in modern medicine.
