    Go to the hospital. That isn't just high that is dangerously high.

    if shes feeling faint or anything go immediately to the hospital.. but if shes ok its just high wait a couple minutes and try again then if it higher or same still to be on the safe side id go to the hospital and be sure shes not having anything wrong in her system. HOWEVER if you cant drive her and no one is around to drive her i would highly suggest you call an ambulance or a close enough family member to drive because due to her high blood pressure we dont want her to faint while driving bad idea for her and u if ur in the car!!
