Asthma and High Blood Pressure

Michael’s Story

Michael enrolled in health coaching to get better control of his asthma and blood pressure. After just a few visits with Health Coach Francine, he was already starting to see progress. Early on, Francine walked through his symptoms with him and became concerned about his shortness of breath and chest tightness. She quickly coordinated with the Nurse Practitioner and primary care provider to make sure Michael would be evaluated and had the right medications in place.

They also focused on practical daily habits. When his first blood pressure reading came in elevated, Francine helped him understand what the numbers meant and why consistency with medication matters. Michael set phone reminders to stay on track, and within a couple of weeks, his readings had improved. With the right support and follow-up, he’s feeling more confident managing his breathing and blood pressure.
