How is high blood pressure diagnosed?


im under a huge time crunch for this report! i would really appreciate some good answers!!

thanks so much (:

3 or more readings of higher than 140/70 is when my doctor actually said I had high blood pressure. But then again, diabetics having blood pressure reading over 115/60 is treated as if they have already had a major heart event.
