    BP is 161/133 I know this is dangerously high. Can I wait until Monday to see a dr.
    My BP is 161/133 and blood sugar 157
    Can I wait until Monday to go to dr? I just started this high blood pressure in the last couple months. I need to get on a med and will go to dr. Monday. Just wondered if I need emergency now? Also does BP make you hot and sweat?
