Isn't a consistent 140/90 borderline hypertensive?

Yeah, but try to crank down the blood pressure too far on someone who's been hypertensive for a while and they'll fall over a lot. Risks and benefits.

I'm quoting UK guidelines though, yanks are generally more aggressive (for no good reason, really)

In the US, that is stage 1 hypertension. Borderline here is pretty much anything close to 130/90

Just buck up and quit caffeine cold-turkey. You'll have a headache for 1 day, then it is over.
