A member asked:
My blood pressure is 172/97 is it ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your blood pressure is too high. You are at higher risk for complications such as stroke, heart attack, kidney disease, and retinal vascular disease. I recommend that you call your doctor ; make an appointment. He/she should be able to get you in right away with blood pressure like this. Good luck.
