Q: High Blood Pressure?

Hey all.
I have just joined a gym and they have checked my blood pressure.
I am a 26 year old male, approx 12stone and 5ft 8ins

my bp is 160/90 and pulse is 70 bpm.

Is this high?

I also have other problems - I sweat a lot, hate my job (cause my boss is always on at me for stupid things that don’t matter) leaving me sometimes (more often than not) not being able to sleep and making me irritable at the best of times.

I also keep having headaches, particularly when my boss is on at me and when I am looking at the funds level (or more importantly lack of..) in the bank.

My doctor wants £35 to check my bp! That cant be right can it?

Any advice greatly taken
