How do you know if you have high blood pressure?

The reason I’m mad asked:


I always had 120/70 and was told it was perfect, last year I went to the Gyn and they told me my blood pressure was a little high, didn’t tell me the numbers but they said it could be stress, I was going to have a pap-smear after they took my bp. That was the last time I checked my blood pressure , I have been to my family doctor but they never take my BP, today I went to CVS pharmacy and I was so bored waiting I took the test in one of those machines they have. It was 135/80. It surprised me, I waited and see other people getting normal blood pressures , I wanted to make sure the machine was working. I always watch out my diet , I exercise regulary, I eat oatmeal every day even though I hate it. I am concerned, is this considered high? I’m 28 years old and I have never been pregnant, should I go to the doctor?, I don’t feel bad at all , I feel normal.
