no one can make you take pills or do your blood pressure, just refuse,i do as i no its going to be high, i use to take it at home but found i got anxiety looking at the machine so i dont do it, if you feel fine you will be, ive had readings from 220/120 to 120/80 and everything inbetween,depends what time of day, what you ate,anxiety,no sleep anything really, the side effects of 5 pills i was on were intorable so stopped them and feel much better and no stress . not a clue what mine is, eat well,lose weight if necessary ,
