Mads	First may be you have "awful stress situation" which can cause BP to rise. Be calm and think about your beautiful experiences in the past and stop worrying. Second lower your salt intake .. and as you know salt (NaCl) can cause BP rise by retaining water in your body. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

emmylee	definitely. you could throw a clot and have aneurysm, stroke, or a heart attack. that pressure is dangerously high and you should seek medical attention at once. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tunic	That's pretty high. If that's your BP at rest, then I would definitely seek medical attention. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
