I would speculate that the reading is incorrect. If money is an issue, go to your local fire department and they will take your reading for free. That is the first thing I would do. Like RIGHT NOW.
Please keep us all posted. I'm very curious on the cause/outcome of this "reading".Brettj3876 Thanks this. -

Some of you didn't read his post where he tested himself at cvs or something. Using their machine. And got the same reading.

Its almost as unbelievable that his BP was 258/123 & they didn't call an ambulance to the Dr's office to immediately transport him to the ER.
If its true that his BP was that high & they didn't immediately transport him via ambulance to the ER on the spot, I agree with @Chinatown, that Dr is totally beyond incompetent.Sirscrapntruckalot, snowmantrucking101, Studebaker Hawk and 6 others Thank this. -
Dude you need to get that BP under control NOW. Heck with driving. You're going to have a stroke or heart attack soon with BP that high.
