My cardiologist is not too concerned with highs and lows, but tells me to take it twice a day and average the readings over a month. I also have had a lot of cardiac testing and adrenal testing that was all normal. I take 3 BP meds. My average is pretty average.

@con123 Hello, has your doctor tried getting you off your meds. 3 BP meds is alot. Your doc should be helping you to at least try to get you down to the lowest dosages. I was told once HBP is a symptom. A symptom of something else going on in your body. HBP medication can be drasically reduced, or even stopped if you take care of the root causes as to why you have HBP. Are you insulin resistant? Do you have a metabolic disorder? Is there inflammation going on in your body? There are many tests to answer these questions. For me I found out by accident through free research testing. I was considered obese, short statured, and had a little fat on my liver, and some inflammtion going on in my body. Once I found out why I have some fat on my liver, I changed everything. I have now lost 42 lbs, and am mostly off my one BP med, got it reduced to the lowest strength, and I feel so much better. I was not metabolically healthy, and I didn't want to damage my liver any further, so I changed my diet and lifestyle so much that I didn't not even have to count a calories. Intermittent fasting heals the body.
I did a heck of a lot of research as to what is insulin resistance/metabolic dysfunctions and how to become metabolically healthy.
You to can take charge, get your doc to help you, or do it on your own, it's so worth getting off meds if you can.
