question: (1) Last week, i went for a health checkup as part of admission to university in August this year. When i took my blood pressure, it was recorded as 133/76. The nurse took a second reading and it was the same as well. When i saw the doctor, she told me that my blood pressure was slightly high, and she took a third time, but this time round, i wasn t told of my pressure. I was wondering if this blood pressure of 133/76 - isit considered as hypertension. My dad has history of hypertension and is currently under medication. And also, what are some things that I can do to keep my pressure normal if I do not want to see a doctor as of now, i.e. food to eat and abstain?
