120/80 is considered the normal comparison figure. Your blood pressure varies throghout the day. Any systolic pressure (the top number) over 140 should be monitored daily. If it continues to be above 140, you should consult your doc, because that is considered borderline hypertension. The diastolic (bottom number) can range from 60-90 normally....but any time your bottom number stays in the 90's should be reported to your doc as well. Remember things that have an effect on your BP are physical activity, stress, smoking, etc. Its best to check it when you wake up in the morning if your concerned.

I have high blood pressure not being overweight mine you, but due to stressful situations that I have encountered through my life. I am diagnosed with being on the borderline with this. This is one of the reason's they call it the silent killer. On the other hand there is nothing borderline about your reading. The top part is fine , it is the bottom part that is extremely dangerous. The very last is your pulse rate which means you need to see a physician right away. They and only they can diagnose you and get you on a medication to adjust these readings, also a lot of the equipment that do high blood pressure readings at your local Department stores are not always accurate. I hope you see a doctor soon and good luck to you.

Usually there are 2 numbers. If the first number is any of the ones you listed then you are very normal. If the first number is 150--200 and the second number is any of the ones listed then you should consult our physician.

YOU SHOULD HAVE HAD TWO NUMBERS...LIKE THE 107/1O8......WHAT EVER YOU BOTTOM NUMBER WAS...IF IT WAS UNDER ONE HUNDRED OR RIGHT AROUND IT I WON'T WORRY ABOUT IT....THAT IS A GOOD REPORT....NOW IF IT WAS SOMETHING LIKE 170/180 YOU ARE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE...YOU HAD BETTER BE ON YOU WAY TO THE ER...THAT IS WAY TOO HIGH....JUST TRY TO REMEMBER THAT THE LOWER THE TOP AND BOTTOM NUMBERS ARE THE BETTER OFF YOU ARE....
