Blood pressure: Blood pressure is your best guide. How you feel is, obviously, even more important, but you can be fooled into thinking that your blood pressure is causing symptoms that are actually caused by something else or are just temporary and coincidental. So go by your blood pressure. A good goal is 120/70 +/- 15. If you're regularly under 100 systolic, it may be a bit too low for someone with high bp.
