Went for a wellness check on Friday and mine was 140/80.
I'm a 35 m. This has me a little concerned. I've never considered myself unhealthy I do drink probably too much beer which might have an effect on it.

yours is not ideal but not alarming either. I think you are in the prehypertension range.

115/70

I am 22. Hating my last job actually elevated my BP.

You need to reduce your sodium intake. Probably reducered meat intake as well.

A primarily veggie/fruit diet will do wonders for high BP.

I wouldn't worry too much about it, unless you consistently get readings like that. Your BP will fluctate quite a bit over a few days and if you were nervous at all it will be higher.

Last time I had my checked it was 135/78. But its been has high as 140/90, but the dr wasn't worried.

I'm normally exactly 120/80 but I am sitting at the doctors office right now and I just was 125/103. It's probably because I partied all weekend but it's still gay!

It runs between 110/60 and 120/75 depending on when I take it.

I have white coat syndrome bad though (ironic given that I'm a med student) and it's always at least 135/85 at the doctor. I have to take it at home.

My doc just told me last week that anything over 140 or 90 is not good.

116/77 pulse 68....with medication.

Got a battery operated BP Cuff.

eta:It was 165/98 5 years ago.

My Doctor put me on Amlodipine.It didn't lower it.So he added another one.He actually called me to see if my bp was down the day I started the 2nd med.It worked.
