I had high numbers for a while. One thing my doctor told me was to first make sure my arm was really really relaxed while taking blood pressure if I wanted an accurate reading.

I did not go on any medication, but I did switch birth control pills. I also made an effort not to eat so many frozen/canned foods with too much salt and eat a bit more fruit. And my numbers did go back down.
