Hello,
Yes, drinking excess coffee and smoking does make the blood pressure go high. At blood pressure of 150/105, you will need medicine. You have to stop smoking and decrease salt intake. Remember to monitor your blood pressure regularly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
