The table suggest probability of 0,2 per cent for 42, but as I have very high blood pressure, live in a country with medium man life expectancy around 60-65, and my parents died at 63 and 73, I feel that my situation is not so good.

Wouldn't it be better to just reduce your probability of death using existing technologies? 65 is a really low life expectancy for somebody who has already survived to 42.
