Well, a lot of what constitutes a hypertensive crisis depends on the patient, their present condition and previous medical history.

But diastolic BPs of over 120 usually contstitute a hypertensive emergency.

Diastolics over 140 represent a crisis.

Now I'm not saying that you shouldn't be concerned at BPs lower than that, but that's what the data say.

I would call your doc today and let him/her know what happened.

Clonidine is a good med to have for hypertension.
