3 years ago, a good friend of mine had a heart attack, followed hours later by a significant stroke just 2 weeks after a company medical had pronounced him fit and healthy. Active, normal cholesterol, normal BMI, non-smoker, enjoyed a tipple or two, but not every day. Just crap luck, basically, according to the doctors. They couldn't pin it on anything particular.
The stroke was life changing. 3 years on, he can still barely walk unaided, and has no use of one arm.
Do the right things to minimise your risk where you can, and just enjoy life. It's really not worth worrying about this stuff.
