Advice needed

[BabyWestwood]

I had been sent to the hospital last week after my midwife appointment as my blood pressure was high! They sent me home and said I could monitor myself, I have been doing this twice a day since and it has always been around 180/113 what should I do?? Should I wait till my midwife appointment this Wednesday? xxx
