It's a good thing to have, But not too much or you go dizzy & fall over, worst case scenario, No blood preesure = Dead , Too much & you could end up dead
Hmm

You don't need to know too much about what the figures mean.120 over 80 is "normal" but everyone is different. Your BP could vary hour by hour, minute by minute! You can have high BP by being overweight, eating too much fat and salt, excessive alcolhol, smoking doesn't help either. Regular exercise is a good idea!

If you want to keep an eye on it, some outlets such as Boots stock simple, accurate (and small!) monitors.
