Booze and antidepressants baby they’ll really crank those numbers up! I’m not even sedentary or anything I work on my feet and exercise a lil too.

    Was that a one-off reading, or have you been keeping a tally going? A one-off blood pressure wont tell you much outside of an immediate medical problem. You need to establish a resting & active baseline to get a good read on your vascular health.

    And while 150/anything isn't good for you, it's almost always addressable and unlikely to cause serious damage unless you're hypertensive for very long periods of time.

      I second this question. One off readings can be wild. It's best to log it and check to see if it's a long term thing.
