Brief Answer:
Need treatment modification...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Your blood pressure readings are too irratic. I would call it as being uncontrolled. Though there is no immediate concern, I would like to get it back to normal limit at the earliest. You may need alteration to the treatment. Perhaps increasing doses or adding another antihypertensive medicine will benefit you.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.
Regards
