Also, before starting a lifetime of antihypertensive drugs, it would be worth considering a 24 hour halter monitor, a machine that you wear for 24 hours that measures your BP every 30 minutes day and night, to make sure you realy are in need of drugs before starting them
if you dont have insurance, cost might be an issue, in that case, I'd atleast buy a new blood pressure monitor and measure it your self every day for 4 weeks before committing to meds.
