Have you been anxious over anything lately, or in pain?  My blood pressure was about 167/114 without my meds.  After an injury to my upper arm my blood pressure went way up due to the pain.  Let me know what it reads today.  Ally

Talk to your Doc about something like Lexapro . Great for anxiety and stress. Really helped my pressure.
