This surely is an abnormal reading!! You check your blood pressure morning & evening for 4-5 days and make a chart!! If the reading is constantly high then definitely you are hypertensive & need medication!! Meanwhile you can start with some lifestyle modifications like decrease Salt intake & much exertional work or workouts
