Well… I think your blood pressure is pretty good at 126/84, and don’t see that medicine is really necessary. Maybe just some lifestyle changes (diet, exercise, etc.)

I agree with the above – your BP ain’t that ‘bad’, but consider some brisk walking for at least 30 minutes daily if you can, ease up on the red meats, and learn some meditative techniques.
