Adjusting your diet, - sodium and + water intake will help but IMHO I think you are better off getting something from the doc.

not bad at all. it's the bottom number that is of most concern.Jayhawk21 said:How bad is 150/74. I always have a much lower, lower# than everybody and I don't know why

I guess I don't understand too much, even after reading about blood pressure on the internet. I got another reading the other day and it was 144/68..even lower.
