    Anderson was a smoker, and her job induced plenty of stress. But she had just been to the doctor two weeks earlier and, according to her family, received a clean bill of health.

    Doctor took blood pressure and said “yup you’re all good”

      “According to her family” doing all the legwork here.

      I’ve never once heard a doctor give a smoker a clean bill of health or gloss over the risks of heart complications, especially if she presented with high blood pressure.
