Family practice : Your BP is a little high and should be treated if its been high for awhile. Your neck pain sounds like a tension or stress headache. This sometimes can aggrevate your blood pressure.

No it is not: It is not normal bp. BP goal is 120/80 an average at any given time. The fact tha your head and neck is hurting may drive your BP up. You definitely need to see your doctor to establish cause of your symptoms, and treat it. Do not think that one time visit to emergency room or walk in clinic will resolve your problem. They are not substitute for regular and ongoing care.
