Health Tips
If you are regularly checking BP at home then the bare minimum that you may try is lifestyle modification with Yog, meditation, aerobic exercises & DASH diet.
It will allay the anxiety and might bring the BP readings in normal range.

Both the readings call for proper evaluation and treatment for hypertension.
Please consult a General Physician in your area who can examine you physically and advice some investigations and treatment.
