That is high. Have you got any other symptoms: headache, nausea, blurred vision, shortness of breath or chest pain? If you have then I’d call 999. If you feel OK then call 111.

Hi Steve, the headaches and pain for 2 days, headaches have stopped and the pain, if it's still high tomorrow and pain I will call 111. Thanks for the advice.

Look after yourself. Just think what you’d say to someone close to you who had the same symptoms. Take care.

how many times have you taken your blood pressure today?..i had some persistent chest pain earlier.. checked my bp and it was 160/70 then went down to 154/66 and finally down to 126/64.. bp monitor flashed with the irregular heartbeat symbol during the highest reading but not during the other 2 readings.. keep your eye on your pain.. if you’re at all worried .. do what Steve advised and call 999 or 111
