thanks for the reply. I don't smoke, have never smoked, nor drank alcohol or taken drugs. But i do have pretty bad eating habits. The readings were taken at clinics or by people that were qualified to take blood pressure.

I actually wasn't just freaked out about this one reading, but my BP readings seem to average around 140/80-90. Anyway i heard that for my age that it is very bad. I guess i need to make some major changes.

Some BP meds can cause impotence, but does high BP directly cause impotence?? I think i heard it does, which as a young man, scares me more than heart attacks.
