What to do if i'm paranoid about having a heart attack/stroke?

How paranoid?: If it's something you think about from time to time, you're pretty normal because we all must deal with the sad reality that in this world, no one gets out alive. If you're paralyzed with fear, professional counseling may be helpful. Meanwhile are you doing all you can to lower your risk? (not smoking, daily exercise, healthy diet? BP monitoring and control?)
