Hello,

After going through the medical quietly raised by you I would like to tell you that if your blood pressure levels go beyond 180 by 100 MM of HG and then the person should seek medical attention as such kind of high blood pressure levels can lead to complications such as CVA.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
