A member asked:
His blood pressure has been a low of 151/91 and a high of 181/95. what should we do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See doc: Check with a doctor. This may need treatment and certainly warrants evaluation. Cut back salt. Lose weight. Keep a blood pressure diary for a month. Check it at scheduled times, 3 times a week (one during the morning, one evening, one afternoon) not based on how you are feeling. Sit for 20 to 30 minutes before taking it, and don't have caffeine for an hour before taking it.
