high blood pressure: That is definitely too high! since you also have symptoms related to the high pressure, you need to see a physician as soon as possible. This is a hypertensive urgency, and you need to have a physical examination of your eyes, heart, lungs and blood vessels. You will probably also receive an electrocardiogram and blood tests. Don't delay, this is serious!
