Purchase an automatic BP instrument. Measure your BP in lying down position early morning when you wake up, for 5 days. If it is consistently around 146/96, consider lifestyle modifications, e.g. Weight reduction, DASH diet, stopping smoking (if present). Monitor BP again after an interval, if it's still elevated, we start medication for you.
Next Steps
DASH diet
