You claim to have had high blood pressure for 5 years and have reported more than enough spikes to suggest that it may be persistently too high, even if you imagine you may be trolling.

This reading looks like a stress-spike.

If serious about your BP, and assuming your machine is calibrated, sit back in your chair and relax for 5 minutes, then take a BP reading. Relax for another 2 readings and take a second reading.   Repeat this twice a day morning and mid evening, for a week. Average those readings and take them to show your doctor if you are persistently above 140/80. If it's well above that then make an urgent appointment.

You need to quit eating obscene amounts of junk food.

See your doctor if your medical condition concerns you.

Regard social media/internet advice as anecdotal.

That is a very high BP.  You need to get to an emergency room immediately.  If you haven't already had a stroke, you soon will.
